History

Crossmolina Dr Crokes GAA was affiliated with the Mayo GAA county board in 1887. In 1906, the name was changed to Deel Rovers, referencing the nearby River Deel. [1] The name of the ground is St Tiernan's Park, for Tigernan of Errew.

Tommy Jordan led the club to the 2000–01 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship. [2] Michael Moore and Padraic Syron were selectors and Jarlath Cunningham trained the team. [3]
