Scotstown GAA (Irish: CLG An Bhoth) is a Gaelic football and ladies' Gaelic football club in Scotstown, County Monaghan, Ireland.[1] Founded in 1890, their most notable period was in 1978–80, when they won three Ulster Senior Club Football Championships in a row. They reached the All-Ireland final in 1978–79, losing to Nemo Rangers.
