History
Drumragh Sarsfields GAC was formed in 1972 after the amalgamation of Tattysallagh St Eugenes and Tattyreagh St Patricks at a time when neither club was particularly pleased with its performance.[citation needed] St Eugenes, founded in the late 1890s, was one of the oldest clubs locally and won the County Junior Championship in 1942.[citation needed]
As of the 21st century, the club has grown and new club rooms and two new pitches (one of which is floodlit) have been developed.[citation needed] As of 2025, Drumragh was fielding over 18 teams at all age categories with both male and female teams.[citation needed]
Notable players
Former Tyrone Minor and Drumragh Sarsfields player Gareth Haughey became the first Omagh CBS captain to lift the Hogan Cup in April 2007.[citation needed] Club Minor and Under 21 player Aaron Montgomery was a member of the Tyrone GAA U17 team which won the Ulster League & Championship and inaugural All Ireland Championship in 2017.[citation needed]
Tyrone Ladies players and Drumragh club members Sinead McLaughlin and Neamh Woods have both won All-Stars.[citation needed]
