Carrigaline GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the town of Carrigaline in County Cork, Ireland. The club fields both Gaelic football and hurling teams in competitions organized by Cork County Board.The club has been nicknamed by its supporters as being the "yellow -bellies". The club is part of the Carrigdhoun division of Cork. Cork Inter-county player Nicholas Murphy plays his club football with Carrigaline. Despite competing in numerous county finals such as Intermediate football final of 2003 and Intermediate hurling of 2006, Carrigaline have failed to capture a county title. On October 12, 2008 Carrigaline captured their first adult county after an Intermediate A Hurling win over Bandon. In 2009 they have now captured the football title, by beating Cill na martra.
