History

The first record of Ardagh fielding a GAA team was in 1908 when they played Knockmore in a challenge game. There was, however, no official team in Ardagh until 1929. Another team was affiliated in 1944 but, due to emigration, was disbanded in 1946. In the late 1950s and 1960s, Ardagh teams won several local 7-a-side tournaments and some of the players played for Ballina and Crossmolina. In 1972, a new club was formed, named Ardmoy, to represent the parishes of Ardagh and Moygownagh. While operating as separate clubs, they fielded a combined team for championship fixtures.
The club won the Mayo Senior League Division 3 title in 2023.
