The club draws its players from the parish of Botha, taking in the areas of Boho, Monea and Derrygonnelly itself.

The Harps went senior in 1953 and were to experience glory at this level in 1959 when they became league champions by defeating Aghadrumsee on a scoreline of 2-5 to 1-4.

Key figures on this team included Louis McGullion, Frank Gaffney, Joe Smyth, Raymond Dundas and Eamon Flanagan.

The club’s fortunes since those early days have remained good, safeguarded by a very positive grounds development programme (see later).

By this stage, Boho St Fabers GFC, Junior Championship winners themselves in 1965, had amalgamated with the Harps.
