James Stephens is a Gaelic Athletic Association club located in Kilkenny, Ireland.

The club is named after James Stephens, founding member of the Irish Republican Brotherhood and took part in its first championship in 1888.

The James Stephens colours of red and green were adopted as a result of the purchase of a set of jerseys from Erin's Own at a price of 30 shillings.

The club's GAA grounds are currently located in Larchfield, Kilkenny and are currently being looked after by player/caretaker Ray Lahart

Generally, this means players that have enjoyed much success with the club or have played for the Kilkenny senior hurling team.
