They won their first Dublin senior hurling championship in 1892, and were beaten by Redmonds of Cork in the All-Ireland final in an unfinished match.

[citation needed] After 1895, Faughs became a hurling-only club and adopted the colours of saffron and green, which it has kept to the present day.

The team was led by Bob Mockler and captured the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship title beating Cork in the final by six points.

Included in this team were Jim "Builder" Walsh, Tommy Moore, Mick Neville, Martin Hayes, Tom Hayes, Jimmy Cleary, Ned Tobin, Bob Doherty and John Joe Callanan, who would later captain Tipperary to beat Dublin in the 1930 All-Ireland final.

These teams included a number of inter-county and inter-provincial players, including Ned Wade, Mick Butler, Terry Leahy, Mick Gill, Dan Canniffe, Dan Devitt, Jim Prior, Tony Herbert, Jack Sheedy and Tommy Boland.

In May 1971, after a gruelling game, they were beaten by one point by Buffers Alley in the Leinster Senior Club Hurling Championship.

[citation needed] Following serious vandalism of these, they moved back to the Phoenix Park to the original Fifteen Acres of the 1885 period.

[citation needed] From the early 1960s, Stephen Bourke's premises at 25 Wexford Street became the new home of Faughs.

It was here that the plans were laid to build the clubhouse at Tymon North, Templeogue, which was officially opened by Dr. Patrick Hillery, President of Ireland on 30 November 1986.
