Rosmini Gaels GAA

The day of the League final against neighbours and close rivals, Whitehall Colmcille, will never be forgotten, not least for the shout from Timmy to Baitsey the goalkeeper (who had just made an impressive solo run out of defence to the half-way line) ordering him to "get back in the goal, you're the goalie 'cos you can't play football"!!!

In the following years, Rosmini Gaels held their own in the upper Junior divisions but a crisis point was reached in 2000/2001 when the club were finding it very difficult to get new players involved.

At this point, Joe Hennessy, Vinnie Duffy and Alan Kelly and their colleagues in the Rosmini Committee took the difficult decision to re-grade to the lower Junior divisions, thereby providing Sunday afternoon matches.

However, in 2010, Rosmini were again Dublin Football Championship winners, beating a strong Croi Ro Naofa side in the Junior E Final in O'Toole Park on 10/10/10, a date never to be forgotten in the club's history.

Rosmini Gaels colours are black and red vertical stripes and they play their home games in Plunkett's VEC College grounds, Whitehall.
