According to its website, Tara Rocks is the "smallest club in Wexford, having just over one mile square of a catchment area" outside Gorey.[2] The club dates to the first half of the 20th century.[2] Their first major success occurred in 1948 when Tara Rocks won the Wexford JFC title.[3]
Tara Rocks secured a Leinster Club JBHC title in 2006, before losing the All-Ireland final to Menlo Emmets.[4] A shortage of players in 2017 resulted in Tara Rocks amalgamating for a period with Kilanerin-Ballyfad, having previously joined with them at underage level. The amalgamation years resulted in a resurgence of the club, with Tara Rocks winning the Wexford IAHC title in 2021.[5][6]
