Naomh Ólaf is a Gaelic Athletic Association club which was founded in 1981 to provide facilities for encouraging the sporting abilities of the people of the developing parish of Balally in South County Dublin, Ireland. A club house was built and players were recruited from around the area, most of them coming from the local schools of Queen of Angels, St Olaf's, St Benildus College, and St Tiernan's.
[edit] Location
The club is located on the Sandyford Industrial Estate in Dublin and recruits players from all around the Sandyford and Balally area, including the Moreen Estate, Wedgewood and The Gallops and not forgetting Glencullen and Stepaside.
[edit] Facilities
As well as its sporting facilities, the club owns and operates a bar, a function room, and a large hall for training and other events. The club has three senior pitches and is planning to build an all-weather floodlit pitch in the coming years. There is also a Naomh Ólaf club shop, which is open every Tuesday between 7 & 8 and on Saturdays from 11-12.
