History
[edit]The Rower–Inistioge GAA club was formed in 1955 when the two existing GAA clubs in the local parish agreed to amalgamate. They were Rower and Inistioge.
The club is an intermediate hurling club in Kilkenny. Rower-Inistioge won the Kilkenny Intermediate Hurling Championship in 2013, beating the Emeralds in the final. They continued on to win the Leinster Intermediate and 2013–14 All-Ireland Intermediate Club Hurling Championship final.[citation needed] This victory is considered one of the greatest sporting achievements of recent times.
