Aodh Ruadh CLG are a GAA club based in the town of Ballyshannon in County Donegal. Historically one of their county's most successful GAA clubs, they have won 12 Donegal Senior Football Championships, they currently compete in Division 1 of the league and the Senior Championship. The club colours are green and white and they play their home games at Fr Tierney Park. History Aodh Ruadh was founded in 1909 as a football and hurling club. Fr Tierney Park opened officially in 1954. Jim "Natch" Gallagher was mentor to Donegal's 1972 and 1974 Ulster Senior Football Championship-winning teams. With Bundoran, Aodh Ruadh formed one half of the St Joseph's team that won seven County Championships and an Ulster Club Championship—the only Donegal team to achieve this feat until Gaoth Dobhair in 2018. They also contributed three players to Donegal's 1992 All-Ireland SFC title win: Brian Murray, Gary Walsh and Sylvester Maguire. In 2011, Aodh Ruadh created history by electing an all-female executive consisting of: Betty McIntyre, Chair, Emma Gaughan, Secretary, and Catherine McKee, Treasurer.
