The club was founded in 1961 and took its name because that was the Patrician year. The club colours came about as one of the founders, Peter Kavanagh, had two sets of jerseys, one green and the other red. Originally the main colours were to be green and white (the colours of Saint Patrick and the shamrock) but because neighbouring clubs Round Towers and Lucan Sarsfields used green and white, it was decided to use red and white and keep the green as second colours.
The first match to ever take place was the U13’s against Round Towers of Clondalkin which John Daly (founder and current club President) refereed. The match took place in a field where the Assembly Hall and St Brigid's School currently stands today.
