In 2012, Heffernan was part of the Tipperary team that won the Munster Intermediate Hurling Championship and the All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship.[5][6][7] He started the All-Ireland final at full forward and scored one goal and four points in the 3–13 to 1–17 victory against Kilkenny at Semple Stadium.[8] Heffernan created a piece of history by adding the All-Ireland Intermediate medal (2012) to the Minor (2006, 2007), Under-21 (2010) and Senior (2010) titles that he had already won.[9]
