Founded in 1887, the club colours are sky blue and navy having originally been royal blue with a dominant white V on the front.
The club has won nine Laois Senior Football Championship titles in it's own right, the most recent of which was in 1992.
However in 2006, a number of Ballyroan players were part of the Ballyroan Gaels squad that won the Laois Senior Football Championship. Ballyroan Gaels was an amalgamtion of the two neighbouring clubs, Abbeyleix and Ballyroan.
Pauric McMahon is the club's current Laois senior star and he is following in the footsteps of the likes of Liam Irwin, Pat Dunne, Micky Drennan and Tony McMahon.
