Gaelic football is a hugely popular sport in Scoil Bhríde, Croghan. The school participates in the Cumann na mBunscol competition and has achieved great success over the last number of years. The school has been very successful in the competition for many years. We were delighted this year to secure a third Cumann na mBunscol title in a row. We have won the competition in the years 1987, 1988, 1996, 2004, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The school has a strong link with the local G.A.A. club St. Brigid's who are of huge support to our teams. The school is very lucky to have access to the super facilities available in St. Brigid's G.A.A.. We are very lucky in Scoil Bhríde Croghan to also have our own pitch on the school grounds for training during school.
Cumann na mBunscol Final 2019
We were delighted to travel to O'Connor Park Tullamore to play in the Cumann na mBunscol final this year. It was a very exciting day and a great display of footballing talent from both sides. We were very happy to have enough on the day to secure a victory. There were great celebrations afterwards at taking home the Cumann na mBunscol trophy to Croghan for the third year in a row.
