History
Patrick Sarsfields were founded on 6 October 1906 and were named after the Jacobite leader Patrick Sarsfield, 1st Earl of Lucan (c. 1660 – 1693).[4]
In hurling, they have only won the county championship once, in 1974. That year they reached the final of the Ulster Senior Club Hurling Championship, losing to Ballycran.
The Gaelic football team have been county champions four times, most recently in 1985.[5]
The club attracted media attention in 2016 after two Syrian refugee children, Ahmed and Renad Soda, were stars of their underage teams.[6][7][8]
