History

Aghabullogue have a long tradition of hurling.[1] In 1890, they won the Cork Senior Hurling Championship. By the rules of the GAA at that time, this victory allowed Aghabullogue to go on and represent Cork in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship.This was captained by Dan Lane. They later collected a Munster title following a victory over Kerry.[2] There was controversy in the subsequent All-Ireland final when an Aghabullogue men left the field after one of the players had his toe broken by a Wexford man's hurley. At a meeting the following week of the Gaelic Athletic Association's Central Council it was agreed to award Cork the All-Ireland title. In 1910, they won the Cork Intermediate Championship and in 1991 won the Cork County Junior Hurling Championship after a replay in which they defeated Aghada.[citation needed]
