Ogonnelloe GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club located in the parish of Ogonnelloe, County Clare in Ireland. The club field teams in hurling competitions.[1]
Ogonnelloe enjoyed their most successful times over a 20 year duration when they climbed from Junior in 1988 through Intermediate which they won in 1995, into senior where they remained until 2009. During this time they collected a Junior 'A' and Intermediate championship, as well as a Clare Cup and two Senior 'B' championships. Ogonnelloe currently compete at Intermediate level.
Since 2005, Ogonnelloe have been amalgamated with Scariff GAA at underage level up to U-21. In the second year of the amalgamation they enjoyed a great run in the U-21 'A' Championship, concluding in a narrow loss to Newmarket-on-Fergus in the final replay. In the years since then, they have tasted success at U-14, U-15, U-16 and Minor 'B' and 'C' level. Scariff/Ogonnelloe won the U-21 'A' Championship in 2022, the first championship win at 'A' grade for the amalgamation.
In January 2020, Ogonnelloe announced the development of an indoor astro pitch in Dr. Stuart Park.[2]
