Queen’s GAA has five clubs: Hurling, Gaelic Football, Handball, Ladies Gaelic Football & Camogie. With over 500 members fielding 14 teams across all codes.
It is with profound sadness that we learned this morning of the passing of Fionntan McGarvey, one of our Fresher players. We pass our heartfelt condolences and prayers to Fionntan’s friends, team mates, and his family at this most difficult time.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
Remembering our former player, Sigerson Cup winner and Queen’s graduate Cormac McAnallen, 17 years after his untimely passing on 2 March 2004.
Inár gcuimhne go buan.
We are saddened to learn today of the passing of Collie McGurk, a distinguished footballer and hurler for club, county and university. We extend our sympathy to his wife Sinéad, his daughters Orla, Aoife and Meabh, his son John, and to the entire McGurk family circle.
We are proud to announce that Sean O’Neill, will be awarded an honorary degree by Queen’s University this year. Three All-Irelands with

We had the pleasure of welcoming The Kilkenny Senior hurling team to The Arena this evening before tomorrow’s opening National League game. We wish them all the best for the year ahead and hopefully we will have them back with us in the near future.

Today’s Ryan cup game between Queen’s & St Mary’s has been postponed as a mark of respect on the passing of former St Mary’s, Bryansford & Down player Eamonn Burns.
Queen’s GAA offer deepest sympathies to Eamonn’s family.
Go ndeánfaidh Dia trocaire ar a h-anam
Saddened to hear of the passing of Brian Conlon, who made a lasting impact on everyone he touched
For Queen’s it was as a mercurial player winning a Ryan Cup playing in the 1985 Sigerson final in Croke Park
Brian graduated in Accounting in 1987 & was an honorary graduate in 2012
The Queen's University Gaelic Football Club & Past Members Union tender deepest sympathies to the Brewster family on the death of Phil, wife of the late Mick (1958 Sigerson winner) & mother of esteemed past players Paul (93) and Tom (2000). Go ndeanfaidh Dia trocaire ar a h-anam
The Queen’s University team of 1990 were reunited on Saturday in Malahide, 30 years after they won the Sigerson Cup. Feargal Logan captained the side which was managed by Dessie Ryan. They defeated St Mary’s (captained by Jarlath Burns) 3-8 to 1-9 In Santry.
It was with great regret that we learned today of the passing of our friend and colleague John Morrison. John was a totemic figure in Ulster GAA and coached our Fresher footballers as recently as last season. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
Armagh’s Callum O’Neill has received the 2019 Cormac McAnallen Medal
The QUB GAA club & Past Members Union initiated the annual award in 2012, which was presented at a special reception at the Queen's
Guest speaker for the event was Colin Holmes, the current Tyrone Minor Manager
Queen’s men Conal and Niall winners of the Conor Mc Gurk Cup. Many thanks to Conor Mc Gurk’s home club St John’s for the great job hosting tonight’s final.
Thanks to
@OfficialDownGAA
for looking after us this evening and well done to all our graduates who lined out in red and black, continuing the great tradition shared between Queen’s and Down.
Cúig bliana déag ó shin chaill muid ceann de na laochra an chluiche. It is hard to believe that today is Cormac McAnallen’s fifteenth anniversary. Remembered always by your friends and admirers at Queen’s University.

ON THIS DAY: Sigerson Cup Winners 1971
Queen’s University 0-7 UCC 0-6: Sunday, 7 March 1971
50 years ago today, Queen’s upset the odds to claim their third Sigerson Cup title after a one point victory over UCC in the final in Galway.
It is with profound sadness that we learn of the passing of Hugh O'Kane.
An iconic figure in the annals of our club and sport at Queen's University, he was captain of the first Queen's University team to win the Sigerson Cup in 1958/59.
Queen’s GAA are delighted to announce a new postgraduate scholarship partnership with the The Gaelic Players Association (GPA).
The application process is now open and closes on May 20th. These should be made to karen

On this day 60 years ago, Queen's University made a significant breakthrough for Ulster football, when they overcame UCD in the Sigerson Cup Final replay by 0-10 to 0-9. The game took place in Ballybay on 15 February 1959.
Full time at Ballykelly and we progress to the Semi-Final of the Intermediate championship 5-13 to UCC 1-10. Eddie Malon finishes with a fantastic personal haul of 4-5.
