Cabinteely competed in the 2015 League of Ireland after being granted a licence by the Football Association of Ireland in January.[1] They made their debut in the League of Ireland First Division on 6 March 2015 and play their games at Stradbrook Road, the home of Blackrock College RFC .[2]
The club, which currently boasts 920 members, was formed in 1967 and has teams from what are called cubs at pre-under-7 level, right up to senior adult teams. The teams, which participate at every under-age level from under-8 to under-18 plus adult, take part in several league and cup competitions such as those run by MGL, DDSL, SDFL, and LSL on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
History
Cabinteely have changed their name over the years. Around 80 years ago, they were commonly known as "the Blues from Cabinteely". In 1939, they won the Schoolboys League Cup in front of an estimated crowd of 6,000. The most famous Cabinteely side included Peter Farrell. The name was changed to Cabinteely Boys around 1950, and the current club was formed in 1967, as Auburn F.C., beginning league football with one team. In 1973, Auburn F.C. was changed to Cabinteely Boys F.C., with the name more recently changed to just Cabinteely F.C. to acknowledge both the female members associated with the club and the ladies teams.
