History

Robert Emmetts hurling club was founded in Bow Palais on 20 March 1948, with a Gaelic football club initiated less than six months later. The club's first game was against Thomas McCurtains and they competed in the London IHC for much of their existence. Robert Emmetts made their big breakthrough in 2004 when they defeated Fr. Murphy's to win the London SHC title. [2] It was the first of the club's nine senior titles. Robert Emmetts defeated Killimordaly to become the first overseas winners of the All-Ireland Club IHC title in 2007. [3] [4]

The club is named for Irish republican and rebel Robert Emmet (1778–1803), but consistently misspells his name with two T's. [5]
