Today, Páirc Tagh na Samhna is the home ground of the club.

The club has historically been known by a few titles: The O'Connells, Rock Rovers, Sean Hurleys and St. Finbarrs (Hurling).

'The Scorcher' was a member of a family that lived in Main Street West at the start of the 20th century.

[citation needed] During the 1940s, the Scorchers won three West Cork titles in a row: 1941, 1942 and 1943.

In 1942, they reached the county final, but lost to a strong combined services team.

The 1950s and 1960s were lean years for the club, except for 1958 when they reached the West Cork final again.

The Juniors managed to bring a 1st adult county and Munster title to the club the year after, in 2006, defeating Churchtown and Knockaderry respectively.

The club qualified for both the Junior A & B West Cork championship finals in 2010.
