St. Colum's is a Gaelic Athletic Association junior A club in both hurling and football in the Carbery division, County Cork, Ireland.
The club was formed in 1970 to facilitate Gaelic Athletic Association for people living in the Kealkill area (e.g. Cappabue, Carriganass, Borlin, Ardnagashel, Coomhola etc.) instead of travelling to clubs further away like Bantry Blues, Glengariff, Dohenys, Ballingeary etc. The club was founded by Fr John McCarthy (a native of Newcestown) who was appointed curate to Kealkil in 1970. The first meeting of the club was held in Coomhola National School on 8 December 1970. In 1971, the club entered teams in all grades open to it, and in the very first year reached the final of the West Cork Junior B Hurling Championship, only to be beaten after a replay by Bandon on the first Sunday in January 1972. St Colum's Camogie Club was formed on 27 April 2009.
Two of St. Colum's most famous victories were in the Junior B grade. In 1997, St. Colum's comfortably defeated Glengariff in Bantry to win the county title and move into Junior A. In 2003, St.Colum's defeated Lisgoold in Cork in a high quality close match to lift the Cork Junior Hurling Championship. 2013 was a very successful year for the club with the junior footballers defeating Caheragh to win the West Cork Final for the first time. They subsequently reached the county final but were narrowly defeated by Mitchelstown. 2013 also saw the hurlers reaching the hurling decider in Carbery losing to Dohenys. 2016 was another disappointing year with the juniors losing divisional finals in both codes - to Gabriel Rangers in football and Kilmeen in hurling.
