ABOUT US

Ballymacelligott GAA Club, just east of Tralee, is built on pride, passion, and resilience. From the early days of the GAA, when local teacher Maurice Moynihan brought the Association to Kerry, ‘Ballymac’ has stood at the heart of the county’s footballing tradition, claiming four County Championships before 1918 and producing players who went on to win All-Ireland medals.

Our club’s story is about more than football. In 1918, as the War of Independence raged, Ballymacelligott GAA players stood not only on the pitch but in defence of their community. The infamous order to “burn Ballymac” was met with fierce resistance and unbreakable spirit- earning the rallying cry: “Ballymac still unconquered.” Today, we honour that legacy. With two pitches- our main grounds and training facility in Arabella, and a well-developed youth programme, Ballymacelligott GAA remains a proud and vibrant club. We continue to grow, grounded in the strength of our past and committed to our future.

“An té a bhíonn croíúil, beidh sé buan.” — He who has pride will endure.

County League U16 B Division 9 Round 1Ballymac 3-09Dr. Crokers 1-15The opening round of the U16 B Division 9 County League threw up a very entertaining contest in Lewis Road Killarney where both teams probably deserved a share of the spoils. It was your classic game of two halves. Ballymac trailed at half time on scoreline of Ballymac 1-01 to Dr. Crokes 1-09. But Ballymac got down to work early in the second half and played with more enthusiasm, intensity and heart compared to their first half performance and got their due rewards when they clawed their way back into the contest with the end result showing a share of the spoils on a scoreline of Ballymac 3-09 Dr. Crokes 1-15. Special mention to Adrian O’Connor who kicked two massive two pointers in the second half. The entire team can be very proud of their second half performance. Thanks to Dr. Crokes for a very sporting game of football ... See MoreSee Less
