It was only Tralee's second outing in this prestigious competition. However, the college created further history by winning the Sigerson three times in successive seasons to become the only RTC/Institute of Technology to do so in the competition's history.
The Ladies football team also won the O'Connor Cup back to back in 1998 and 1999.
The Hurling club play in the Rayn Cup and Higher Education Leagues and the Waterford Crystal Cup.
IT Tralee won the Rayn Cup in 1997, 2007, 2011. The camogie team won the Purcell Shield in 1997.
