History edit

Timahoe participated in the reorganization of 1894. Coill Dubh was the largest Bord na Móna village built in Ireland and the only one on a green field site, and shortly after construction the GAA club was established in 1957 by Tom Murtagh from Longford and Vinny O’Rourke from Leitrim. The club almost went out of existence in the early 1980s but came to dominate hurling in Kildare in the 1990s. From 1990 to 2005 the club contest the senior hurling final on every occasion bar 1992.

In 1993 they won an All Ireland under-16 competition, beating Offaly's Kilcormac-Killoughey in the final.

Gaelic Football edit

The Gaelic football wing of the club lasted very few years. Local players now play with St. Kevin's, Allenwood, Caragh and Ballyteague.

Hurling edit

The first championship was won by the under-15s in 1961, led by Tony and Tommy Carew and Willie Percival. Morris Dee, Richie Hayden, Larry Kelly and Tony Carew, who featured on the team that won the Junior Hurling championship in 1968, were on the team that won its first senior hurling championship 19 years later.

Camogie edit

In 2013, Coill Dubh re-launched their Camogie Club. This was re-launched by Mairead and Eamon Dwyer.
