Ardrahan GAA club won its first Galway Senior Hurling Club Championship title in 1894 and since then has won it on 11 occasions, having contested 18 County Finals in its history. It lies second on the role of honour, only to Castlegar who have won 16 titles. The last title was won after a replay in 1978, against rival neighbours Ballindereen.

At this sad and most heart breaking time for the Mahoney family, Ardrahan Hurling Club wishes to tender our most sincere sympathy to Catriona, Olivia, Lorraine, Noel, Mairead and Patrick on the death of your Dad, to brothers Johnny and Eddie and sister Mary, and to his grandchildren, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, nieces and nephews and extended family on your tragic loss, the death of our most esteemed and iconic clubman P.J.

Senior Hurling titles. Numerous South Board Championships, Reeves Cup, Gilligan Memorial, South Board Gold Medal, Shanaglish and Kilbeacanty Gold Medal Tournaments as well as a Co.
