Gaelic Football originates from Ireland and the first official game was played in 1885.
The Slovak Shamrocks were founded in 2011. Originally we were founded with a Mens team only, however in 2013 we also founded our Ladies team. Since 2022 we also play Gaelic Handball.

However, the success we are most proud of is off the pitch in the diversity within our club members.
