New GAA Club Proposed For Naas

Those interested are asked to register their interest on Instagram

People in the Naas area are being asked to register their interest in a new GAA club for the town.

It comes as Naas have been dominant in both hurling and football in recent years, completing a four-in-a-row of football titles in 2024 and are currently defending eight-in-a-row hurling winners.

The new club, called John Devoy Gaels is hoped to bring something to the community, and has called on players, parents, supporters or simply someone who would love to be part of something new, to contact them.

John Devoy was an Irish Republican and journalist who was originally from the nearby village of Kill, serving in the Irish Republican Brotherhood.

Those interested in the new GAA club are asked to register their interest on Instagram.

On social media, the proposed club said "a new chapter is about to begin" and added that "now is the time to get involved".

However, their logo does show a mistake written in the Irish language, reading "ní heart go cur le chéile", instead of the intended "ní neart go cur le chéile", meaning that there is strength in unity.

The club will aim to cater for the growing population of one of Ireland's largest towns and indeed most successful GAA clubs aswell.
