History

Located in the village of Cullen, on the CorkKerry border, Cullen GAA Club was founded in 1933, as a result of the establishment of the divisional Duhallow Board. [1] Pat O'Callaghan, the double Olympic gold medallist, was the first president of the club. Cullen has spent it's entire existence operating in the junior grade. The club was in it's formative years when Duhallow JAFC titles were won in 1936 and 1939. [2]

Cullen fell into decline in the decades that followed, however, in 1959 a move was made to re-establish the club. This inititaive succeeded, with Cullen goining on to win a third Duhallow JAFC title in 1967. [3] The new century saw the club win further divisional titles in 2004, 2006 and 2008. [4] Cullen won it's seventh Duhallow JAFC title after a 4–16 to 1–02 defeat of Kanturk in 2022. [5]
