Courcey Rovers is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the villages of Ballinspittle and Ballinadee in County Cork, Ireland.
They were joined by newly formed Kilbrittain, Shannonvale, Clogagh and Ballinadee who did not field in football.
Of those original seven, Kilbrittain and Ballinadee (Courcey Rovers) have since retained hurling as their primary game.
However, when they saw the heavy state of the Bandon pitch they at first refused to play and the game was held up for an hour.
But Courceys Rover's day eventually came in 2001 when they won the Carrigdhoun Junior Hurling Championship.
[citation needed] Courceys still remain the only club in the SE division to claim the Cork Under-21 Hurling Championship title when they defeated St Finbarrs in 1997.
