Turloughmore GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the village of Turloughmore, County Galway, Ireland. The club is primarily concerned with the game of hurling.
Overview
[edit]History
[edit]Hurling had been played in the parish of Lackagh long before the establishment of the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1884. The formation of the Irish National League in 1882 as a follow-up to the Land League, resulted in the setting up of a branch of the Gaelic Athletic Association being formed in the parish on 14 May 1886, which led to organised hurling games under proper rules.
