Corcoran coaches with Kilmacud Crokes. Corcoran is easy to pick out on the pitch,[citation needed] as he wears a distinctive black and red Mycro helmet.[citation needed]

In 2018, Corcoran joined Eddie Brennan's Laois hurling backroom team.[3] After coaching the Laois hurlers, he joined Davy Fitzgerald's Wexford backroom team when Brennan left the Laois job at the end of 2020.[4]
