Hurling

Sallins also has a separate hurling club. While juvenile hurling is part of the main Sallins GAA club, their men’s team has been set up as a separate club due to a conflict of interest for some footballers.

After a break of over 30 years, Sallins started juvenile hurling in 2002 and fielded an adult team in 2003 and has been competing ever since.

The current[ when? ] hurling side play in the Junior League and Championship. In 2009, the hurlers made both league and championship semi finals.

Ladies football

After many years playing as an amalgamated team with players from the nearby village of Carragh, Sallins had their first adult ladies football team in 2018. They have had several successes since then, winning a division 7 league title in 2018, and a junior c championship cup in 2021. In 2021 the ladies footballers fielded two minor teams.

Camogie

As of 2021, the club fields camogie teams up to U17 level.[ citation needed ]
