Cabinteely (Irish: CLG Chábán tSíle)[1] is a Dublin GAA And Dublin Camogie[2] club based in Kilbogget Park which serves the Cabinteely / Johnstown / Killiney / Cherrywood / Ballybrack / Loughlinstown areas of Dublin, Ireland.
History
[edit]Cabinteely GAA Club[3] was founded in 1977 and shortly thereafter acquired home grounds at the newly developed Kilbogget Park, Cabinteely.[4] The clubhouse at Kilbogget Park was opened in 1994 by which stage the club fielded juvenile teams, 2 adult football teams as well as an adult hurling team[5] - Kerry GAA legends Eoin 'Bomber' Liston and Ogie Moran guested for the club in the exhibition game held on the day to honour the occasion.
In the late 1990s, the club fielded its first girls' football teams and this would later lead to the formation of Foxrock Cabinteely GAA.
Cabinteely won two Dublin Junior Hurling Championships in the 1990s, in 1995 and in 1997. Both finals were against St Finian's (Swords).
Cabinteely GAA's pitches are shared with Foxrock Cabinteely with the main adult pitch located in Kilbogget Park and 2 additional juvenile pitches in Kilbogget Park, one beside the Seapoint rugby pitches, and the other behind the housing estate in Coolevin, Ballybrack. Following the commencement of works in May 2023 to replace and upgrade the adult pitch in Kilbogget, the 2 clubs were given priority use of the new adult and juvenile GAA pitches in Ticknick Park, Cherrywood for the duration of the works, with the new pitch hoped to be ready for use Q4 2024 / Q1 2025. The existing juvenile pitches and clubhouse are unaffected by these works.[6]
