History
Hurling has been played in the area since the early days of the GAA when two separate clubs, Abbey and Duniry, were in existence. A club in Tynagh also existed. All three clubs operated as separate entities, however, they often combined in an effort to fields teams. Tynagh and Abbey/Duniry amalgamated at juvenile and underage levels as a result of a decline in population in those areas. This was followed by an amalgamation at adult level in 2004.The Tynagh-Abbey/Duniry was just five years in existence when it claimed the Galway IHC title after a 1-20 to 1-16 defeat of Meelick-Eyrecourt in the final. This was followed by winning the Connacht Club IHC title. Tynagh-Abbey/Duniry added a second set of Galway and Connacht Club IHC titles to their collection in 2024.
