Erin's Own Gaelic Athletic Club, Cargin is a sports club based in Toome, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It competes in the Antrim leagues and championships of the Gaelic Athletic Association, in Gaelic football, camogie and hurling.[1][2]

History

A club based in Toome, Lámh Dearg, won the 1923 Antrim Senior Football Championship. Erin's Own was founded in 1928, but the "1923" on the club crest refers to the earlier club.[3] The club played the first "official" games of rounders in Ireland in June 1958.[4]
