The club is a member of the Avondhu divisional board. Buttevant GAA are commonly known as "the bumble bees".^{[citation needed]}

History

[edit]

Founded in 1884 by Fr. Con Buckley (who attended the inaugural meeting of the GAA in Hayes Hotel in Thurles in the same year), Buttevant GAA has fielded teams in hurling and football since that time. The club has played in the former British Army barracks since 1922, and officially took over the grounds from the state in the 1950s.^{[citation needed]}

In 1926, the club's Intermediate Footballers won the Cork County Championship. The club also contested and lost the Intermediate Hurling Final in the same year. After numerous attempts, the club finally won the Cork Intermediate Hurling Final in 1940.

Club members, to have represented Cork, include All-Ireland winning fullback Batt Thornhill, dual player Billy Mackessey (who won All Ireland hurling and football medals in 1903 and 1911), Peter O'Grady (who won an All Ireland hurling medal in the 1930s), and Tommy O'Sullivan (who scored the winning goal in the 1952 All Ireland hurling final and collected another All Ireland medal in 1953).^{[citation needed]}

In the 1960s, the juvenile section of the club was formed and several North Cork titles were won in both codes at underage levels.^{[citation needed]} The juvenile section's hurlers won the club's first North Cork Junior Hurling A title in 2010 and the Junior Footballers contesting, and losing to Mitchelstown, the Club's first North Cork Junior final in 2013.^{[citation needed]} The Minor A footballers got to the county final in 2013, losing to Castlehaven.^{[citation needed]} The club won this title two years later when the side beat Macroom in October 2015.^{[citation needed]}
