2009/10 Season

The club clinched their first trophy by winning the Scottish University Gaelic Football League B Division title, pipping city rivals University of Glasgow to the post. Having secured the league title, the club followed up the previous years disappointment with a spirited display in the 2010 British Championships. The tournament saw them narrowly miss out on a place in the semi-finals, although their performances earned them plaudits. GCU followed their disappointment in the British Championships by defeated Abertay at Stepps to clinch a place in the final of the Scottish University Gaelic Football Championships. The final of the champions took place against University of Stirling in Stirling. After a heated and sometimes ill-tempered contest, GCU clinched the championship with some ease to secure the first double in their history.
