The club had a strong association with the Lee Rowing Club and the teams were largely made up of West Cork men working in the city.

  1. By the late 1920s the club was almost defunct and at the 1929 AGM of a rival club, Nils, the chairman "stressed the fact that Gaelic Football was in a deplorable state in the city at the present time, and teams of long connection with the GAA like Nils and Lees, found it almost impossible to put a single senior team team on the field when a couple of years back they could put senior, intermediate and junior teams. There was certainly work for an organiser here to organise Gaelic football in Cork City and help to bring it back to the high position in the GAA which it held some years back."
