Trim GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in Trim, in County Meath, Ireland. The club fields both Gaelic football and hurling teams. It competes in Meath GAA competitions. Trim is known as the home of hurling in Meath and the Meath Senior Hurling Championship final was held there each year until the redevelopment of its facilities meant it was moved to Pairc Tailteann.
2011 Football Relegation
Trim finished at the bottom of Group A, with 3 points from 5 games and point difference of -30, the lowest of any team that year. Trim's only win was a 1-15 to 1-10 defeat of Blackhall Gaels on 7 August 2011. Trim's first relegation play-off was against Nobber on 20 August, Trim were beaten 3-8 to 1-16.
On 9 September 2011, Trim were beaten 1-11 to 2-9 by Duleek/Bellewstown in Páirc Tailteann in their second relegation play-off and were relegated to the Intermediate Football Championship. Trim were promoted to Senior Level football in 1949 and relegation ended a 62 year spell at Senior level, the second longest spell after Skryne who have been in the Senior Football Championship since 1938.
However Trim have enjoyed a recent resurgence, captained by their mountainous fullforward Thomas McCabe. McCabeLAD functions as an impact sub, often getting up to 10 minutes a game! His deadly finishing from inside the small box and massive kick makes him the team's star player, ensuring he "pulls all the Trim moths" [1]
