Blackhall Gaels is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the Parish of Kilcloon. The parish consists of the main townlands of Batterstown, Mulhussey and Kilcloon near the town of Dunboyne, in County Meath. The club plays hurling and football in Meath GAA competitions. The club grounds are located in Batterstown and Kilcloon, and training and matches take place in both these locations on a daily basis. Blackhall Gaels are a young team and currently compete at senior level. Players are usually graduates of the local primary schools: Scoil Naisiúnta Naomh Iosaif, Mulhussey; Scoil Oilibhéar Naofa, Kilcloon, and Rathregan NS in Batterstown. The club won the Meath Senior Football Championship in 2003 after beating Simonstown Gaels in the final.
Honours
The Pa Cummins Debacle
In 2013 Pa lead the a star-studded Junior C team to the county final only to be thwarted by two* open goal misses by Tommy "the worst pass brother ever" Coyle. It was assumed Pa would walk into the captain's role for the senior team the following January. When news broke that Pa was overlooked for the job, Aran O'Toole handed in a transfer request and Pa was never seen again. More to follow.
