In 1966 the club won the Meath Senior Football Championship for the first time beating Kilbride 0-08 to 0-06 after the teams couldn't be separated after two previous games. They won their second title in 1968 beating Walterstown in the final 3-17 to 1-04. They won their third and most recent Senior Football Championship in 1991, when they defeated Walterstown again in the final by 1-12 to 1-06, Terry Ferguson captaining the side that day, with Eugene McGillick picking up the Man of the Match award. The club has won the Meath Intermediate Hurling Championship four times, most recently in 2008.

Honours
gollark: I mean, I would just do it as a function `u64 -> u64`. I don't see why you would want it to be its own type.
gollark: Why would it be an enum? Do you mean a tuple struct like `struct Collatz(u64)`?
gollark: What's "recursion"? Some sort of ridiculous academic idea?
gollark: Did some bored person just go "hmm, yes, let us program in all formulae for sums of powers"?!
gollark: No, I mean how did it recognize that.
