O'Dempsey's GAA[1][2][3][4] is a Gaelic football club located in the northeast of County Laois, Ireland.[5]

History

The club was founded in 1951, won the Laois Junior Football Championship title in that same year and followed up by winning the Laois Intermediate Football Championship title the following year. The club name refers to the Ó Díomasaigh (O'Dempsey) family, the ancient Gaelic rulers of the Clann Mhaolughra (Clanmaliere) region, incorporating Portnahinch and Upper Philipstown on both sides of the River Barrow.[6][7]

O'Dempsey's went on to win two Laois Senior Football Championship titles in 1963 and 1980.[8][6]

Locally well-known county players that have played for the club Include John Costello, Billy Walsh, John Paul Kehoe, Johnny Behan, Brian Nerney, Eddie Kelly, Jack Kenna, Mick Aherne, Leo Turley and Peter O'Leary.

O'Dempsey's GAA club grounds are located at the Old Pound, halfway between Ballybrittas and Killenard.[9]
