Two Campile players, brothers Martin and Jack Howlett, Dunbrody, played on the record-breaking Wexford football team of the 1910s.

Three county Junior Hurling Finals were contested by sides from the parish, in 1928 by Shelburne, 1938 by Campile and 1940 by Sean Finns, but all three ended in defeat.

Hurling was how the association's dominant sport, though a County Junior Football Title was won in 1951 and the club spent five years in the Senior grade without any success.

They returned to the senior ranks in 1961, when 41-year-old Mick O'Hanlon lined out at full back on a team that defeated Oylegate.

A fourth Senior Final was contested in 1963 but they lost to an Oylegate side strengthened by a number of players from Ballyhogue.

In 2005, following a defeat against local rivals Gusserane, the senior team continued in the championship via the losers' route, beating Glynn/Barntown by a goal (1-08 - 0-08).

Horeswood won in the final at Wexford Park against trainer and selector Aidan O'Brien's home club, Adamstown, led by Man of the Match, Ciaran Deely to win the County Championship.

Although goalkeeper Diarmuid Hartley and his defence conceded their first goal of the tournament, Horeswood won with a scoreline of 0-14 to Adamstown's 1-08.
