History

Located in the village of Beaufort, between Killarney and Killorglin, Beaufort GAA Club was founded in 1929. The club has spent most of its existence operating in the junior grade, however, Kerry IFC titles were claimed in 1980 and again in 2000.[1]

Beaufort enjoyed one of its most successful seasons during 2018–19. After claiming the Kerry JFC title, the club subsequently beat Dromtarriffe to win the Munster Club JFC title.[2] On 9 February 2019, Beaufort defeated Easkey by 3–17 to 0–05 in the All-Ireland final.[3][4]
