Gaultier GAA

Situated on the west side of Waterford Harbour on Ireland's southeastern coast, it lies within the Barony of Gaultier.

This name, Gáll Tír meaning "foreigners' land" in Irish, refers to the influx of firstly Viking and then Norman settlers in the area.

The present GAA club, which takes its players from these areas, came into existence through the amalgamation of Ballymacaw Ramblers and Pierce McCann's of Dunmore.

[citation needed] In the beginning of the 1950s, Gaultier followed the developments which corresponded with sweeping under-age resurgence taking place in Waterford city, especially the successful Juvenile Streets League.

[citation needed] The club suffered two County Intermediate defeats at the hands of Tallow and Ballinameela before finally making the breakthrough in 1988.

[citation needed] In the club's first season in the Waterford Senior Football Championship, in 2005, they reached the Semi-Finals only barely losing out to eventual champions Stradbally.
