Club History

[http://www.eringobraghgaa.ie Erin Go Bragh] was founded in 1986 in Dromheath. The club started out at juvenile level with 3 teams at Under 10, Under 12 and at Under 14. A junior football team was also founded and played in the then Junior Division 2. The club moved to Porterstown Park in Clonsilla and expanded at under age level with teams at Under 16 and minor level in 1996. The club was once again on the move in 2003 relocating to Clonee, Littlepace/Castaheaney. In September 2005 Fingal County Council allocated football pitches in the to the club. Former GAA President Mr. Sean Kelly formally launched [http://www.eringobraghgaa.ie Erin Go Bragh] GAA Club in Littlepace/Castaheany on the 23rd November, 2005. The Clonee, Littlepace/Castaheaney area was identified as having a large and growing population yet no GAA presence. There is a wide expectation that the club will grow in the coming years and as a result a three strategic year plan (2006-2008) was devised and is currently been implemented [http://www.eringobraghgaa.ie/developmentplan.pdf] .

Hurling

In early September 2005 [http://www.eringobraghgaa.ie Erin Go Bragh] introduced Hurling and Camogie to the Littlepace/Castaheaney area for the first time in its history. A junior hurling team was setup during the summer of 2007 with a view to competing in the 2008 hurling season. The hurling team play their hone games at Saint Catherines due to the clubs current pitch in Castaheany/Littlepace being too small. The team is managed by Kevin Kenny. The hurling teams first match was a friendly against St Peregrines on the 30th of September 2007.

Underage/Juvenile

The club is currently coaching over 150 children ranging from 4 to 12 years of age in football, hurling and camogie.
