Roscrea GAA is a Tipperary GAA club which is located in County Tipperary, Ireland. Both hurling and Gaelic football are played in the "North Tipperary" divisional competitions. The club is centred on the town of Roscrea. The club's colours are red and white and they play at Páirc Naomh Cronáin (English: St. Cronan's Park). This was the venue for the 1949 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Final.
Roscrea were founded in 1895. [1] They were feared[ according to whom? ] in the 1960s and 1970s for their hurling prowess but are now referred to as the "sleeping giants" of North Tipperary.[ citation needed ]
Roscrea has been considered a strong club in North Tipperary for a long time. In 2017 Roscrea won a minor county title.[ citation needed ]
