Kilbrittain GAA

Kilbrittain GAA club was founded in 1904. It has been primarily a hurling club throughout its history, though it did play in the Cork Junior Football Championship final in 1926. Hurling has always been the first sport in the parish. From the beginning, especially in the 1920s, the club had some successes in the South-West division, winning 6 titles in a row and again in 1930, 1938, 1940, 1941 and 1942. In 1978, after a lapse of 36 years, the club won the Flyer Nyhan Cup or the South-West Junior Hurling Championship. The club were beaten by Kinsale in the subsequent Cork Junior Hurling Championship.

In 1984, Kilbrittain reached the final of the Cork Junior Hurling Championship only to be defeated by Midleton. The following year, 1985, Kilbrittain defeated Cobh in the final to win its first county title in 81 years.

In 1994, the Carbery divisional team won the Cork Senior Hurling Championship title with a number of Kilbrittain players on the team, 5 playing on the team with 2 subs.

After competing 10 years in the Intermediate grade and being runners up in 3 county finals (1988, 1989, 1993) Kilbrittain won the Cork Intermediate Hurling Championship in 1995. In 1996, Kilbrittain became a senior hurling club. In 2010 Kilbrittain won the Cork County intermediate A hurling championship.
