Ballinahinch GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club which represents the village of Ballinahinch in North County Tipperary, Ireland. The club plays both Gaelic Football and Hurling.
History
The club was founded in 1886, two years after the founding of the GAA at Thurles. While the founding of the GAA at Ballinahinch is dated 1886, there is strong evidence that the game of hurling was played and a club existed at Killoscully from 1884, the same year that the GAA was founded at Thurles. In the beginning the club was renowned as a football team, but hurling became very important and the club have kept the two games going and have enjoyed success, particularly since 1980 when they won their first County Junior Hurling title and north hurling and football titles.[2]
