Club Reviews
"The
craic and the history at Cúchulainns is second to
none - and one of the few London clubs to boast both a Hurling
and Football team. With many past and recent successes including
the London Intermediate Football League Champions of 2003
we're confident of even greater success in the future!"
Eddie
Naughton
Chairman
"We've
been in existence since 1932, one of the longest running
clubs in London GAA history and we're immensely proud of
that tradition and aim to carry on the successes of the
teams that have gone before us. SE London GAA is alive and
well and living at Cúchulainns!"

Play Gaelic Football in London
(http://london-gaa.blogspot.com)
Playing gaelic football in
London has been around since the inception of the GAA itself, and although
the London Gaelic Football team has never won an All-Ireland title, the
sport itself is alive and well in the English capital. As you can imagine
the London Gaelic football team is made up of players from all over Ireland
who base themselves in London and the players selected for the London
Gaelic football squad are chosen from the many clubs right across London
- there are approximately 26 Gaelic Football clubs in London at the present
time, although there were many more in years gone by.
The London Gaelic Football
scene is divided into 3 championships (Senior, Intermediate, and Junior)
and 3 League divisions (Division 1, Division 2, and Division 3). Currently,
the Cuchulainns Gaelic Football team are in the Intermediate Championship
and League Division 2, but with great strides being made in recent years
(notably the Intermediate League Champions 2003) we are closing
in on our goal of playing Senior Championship football in the next couple
of years.
So if you're looking to play
gaelic football in London then you've come to the right place here at
Cuchulainns. By joining us you can play gaelic football in London for
one of the best and friendliest London GAA clubs and enjoy the games and
the craic at the same time. We are a very socialable as well as being
a competitive gaelic football and hurling club - so come and join us.

The London Gaelic football
team itself take part in the National League and All-Ireland championships
and this year (2005) almost pulled off a great trimuph over Roscommon
in the All-Ireland championship, only to be defeated by one point in the
end - that game was played at London GAA headquarters in Ruislip, North
West London. So you can see there is great potential for things to happen
with the London squad in years to come and by taking part and playing
gaelic football in London for a competitive London club like Cuchulainns.
So join in on the action while
you're based in London, whether you're here for just a few months, a few
years, or for the longterm - whether you're from Antrim or Armagh, Limerick
or London, Kerry or Kildare, Tipp or Tyrone or elsewhere in Ireland. We've
had players from every county in Ireland join our club over the
years so come and make us your home club while you're in London. Cuchulainn
Abú!!
We've even had a few Aussie
Rules blokes join us as well from time to time - they weren't too bad
either, I have to say! So if you've got any Aussie mates lying about getting
up to no good, bring them on down to the Cuchulainns and we'll sort them
out for ya!
All the Best for Now
