In the history of Gaelic games in Tramore there were
very many ‘valley periods’ when no G.A.A club existed
in the town and it was left to the dedication of the
Christian Brothers to keep the spark of Gaelic games
alight.
A milestone was reached in 1972 when the present Juvenile
Club was formed. The founder members were Brother Farrell
and the intrepid Dougie Partridge. The first meeting
was held in the school staff-room. From that meeting
emerged the first Juvenile Committee which was as follows:
Brother Farrell, Dougie Partridge, Ray Kehoe, John Flavin,
Dessie Nolan, John Walsh (Monmahogue).

In 1973 there was an influx of new blood into the juvenile
organisation in Tramore. The likes of Brother Mullally,
John Walsh, Denis McCarthy and Roger Barron joined the
committee and contributed greatly to the development
of the club. John Walsh still continues to be very active
in club affairs.
In 1973 the Juvenile Club also ran the U-21 and Minor
hurling and football team. The U-21 footballers won
the County Title in 1973, the Eastern Title in 1974
and the County Titles in 1975 and 1976.

1972 All the Stars
|
The Juvenile Club continued
to run both age groups until 1978 when they were taken
over by the Adult Club Since that time we have had a level
of achievement in under age competitions, which is the
envy of clubs all over the county. Indeed, our U-14 record
is unique both on the local scene and at National level
in Feile na nOg where we have represented Waterford on
nine occasions, reaching six finals and were champions
in 1989 and 1990. |
|
1979 saw our first breakthrough at U-14 level when
we won the Eastern Title, only to be narrowly defeated
for the County Title, partly due to some injuries to
key players. However, our 1980 U-14 team atoned for
that near-miss by winning both Eastern and County Titles
in fine style and went on to repeat that fine achievement
in 1982.
Then commencing in 1986 our U-14 footballers won their
first of a remarkable five-in-a-row which will probably
never again be equaled let alone surpassed.
