Donaghmore St Patrick's is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the village of Donaghmore in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. They play in blue and gold colours. History Foundation and early years Donaghmore Éire Óg was formed on 26 December 1903 by a group led by Cathal O'Toole, the first Gaelic Football Club in the parish of Donaghmore, influenced by the nearby Dungannon Emmetts. O'Toole was appointed President and Captain, with John O'Neill (Drumbearn) as Vice-President and Vice Captain. Edward Carberry became Treasurer, and William Cunningham Secretary, while the first committee consisted of James McCann, John O'Neill (Donaghmore), Joe Carberry, Joseph Daly, Joseph Brannigan and Henry Daly. The name Éire Óg (Young Ireland) was chosen by O'Toole, a frequent contributor to the weekly Young Ireland column of the Ulster Herald newspaper. The new club aimed to celebrate Irish culture, so the Gaelic football team was followed by a hurling team and a literary section. O'Toole urged others to follow the example of Dungannon and Donaghmore so that Tyrone would "soon be ablaze with enthusiasm for the revival of our national games and pastimes". The chosen colours of Donaghmore Éire Óg were green jerseys with a gold sash, and they played their first match in Coalisland against Coalisland Fianna on Sunday 17 April 1904, with Coalisland winning 2–6 to 0–3. On 18 December 1927, led by team captain Johnny McCullough, Donaghmore GAA won the 1927 Tyrone Senior Championship Final, beating Ardboe Pearses 1–7 to 0–9 in Dungannon, the year that the event was awarded by the O'Neill Cup for the first time. Father Eamon Devlin was appointed as curate for the Donaghmore area in October 1941, where he stayed for most of his clerical life until 1969. Under Devlin's guidance, a meeting was held on 26 January 1944, which resulted in the renaming of the club to its current name of Donaghmore St Patrick's. The team won the East Tyrone League in 1946, and again in 1952. In 1954, Donaghmore won the Tyrone Junior Championship, and again won the East Tyrone League in 1957. In 1959, Donaghmore achieved their first success at Grade One level, winning the U-16 Championship. 1960s onwards The beginning of the 1960s to the end of the 1980s saw significant changes for Donaghmore GFC. The Senior team saw both relegation and promotion in the 1960s, winning the Intermediate Championships in 1965 and 1968. A Youth Club was
