History

Founded in 1887, the Mallow club enjoyed its first success at adult level when the Cork JHC title was won after a defeat of Rangers in 1914. Further success followed when the Cork IHC was claimed in 1923, giving the club senior status for the first time. [1] Mallow's time in the top flight saw them record one of the biggest shocks in the first 50 years of the championship when they beat 18-time and reigning champions Blackrock in the 1928 second round. [2] They were subsequently beaten by Éire Óg in their only appearance in a senior final. [3] In spite of this, Mallow claimed further Cork IHC titles in 1959 and 1972. [4] [5]

Mallow's second century saw the club enjoy many Gaelic football successes. A Cork IFC title in 1992 was followed by Cork PIFC triumphs in 2007 and 2017. [6] [7] [8] Mallow claimed their first ever senior title when they beat St. Michael's to take the Cork SAFC title in 2021. [9]

In 2022, a Seven-goal blitz saw Mallow win the Minor Hurling Challenge Cup at Páirc uí Rinn beating their opponents Inniscarra on a scoreline of Mallow 7-14 Inniscarra 0-13.
