History
Located in the town of Carrigaline, about 12 km south of Cork, Carrigaline Hurling & Football Club is one of the oldest clubs in the county, if not the country, having been formed in the early days of the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1884.[1] The club has spent the majority of its existence operating in the junior grades and won the inaugural South East JAHC title in 1926.[2] It was the first of 10 such titles. Carrigaline have also been regular winners of the South East JAFC and have claimed 14 titles in all.[3]
The 21st century brought a number of successes in both codes. Carrigaline won the Cork IHC and the Cork IFC titles after respective defeats of Bandon in 2008 and Cill na Martra in 2009.[4][5] The club achieved senior status for the first time in 2015, when the Cork PIFC was won after a 0–12 to 0–11 defeat of St Michael's.[6] Almost a decade later, Carrigaline once again reached the top tier when the club won the Cork SAFC title after a two-point win over Knocknagree.[7]
