History

The club was founded in 1930.[1] It was popularly believed that the club acquired its name from the neighbouring townland of Ballyrussell, while other research suggests that it was possibly named after a Fr. John Russell who was Parish Priest of Cloyne in the 1840s.[4] Fr. Russell was a prominent and sometimes controversial figure, and a prolific letter-writer - as can be seen from correspondence with the Cork Examiner and Cork Constitution newspapers in October 1848 when he took issue with the local Protestant curate of Ballycotton, whom he accused of proselytism; i.e., of bribing hungry children with food to attend Protestant schools. Fr. Russell is also credited with assisting in setting up National Schools in the area.[4]

After winning the club's first Cork Junior A and Munster Junior Club Hurling Championship finals in 2019, the club progressed to the 2019–20 All-Ireland Junior Club Hurling Championship final, after beating Mícheál Breathnach CLG of Galway in the semi-final.[5] The club ended their run as runners-up to Conahy Shamrocks in the final.[6]
