New York's home ground is Gaelic Park, New York City. The team's manager is Johnny McGeeney.

New York last won the National League in 1967 and has never won the All-Ireland Senior Championship.

In the 2022 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship Semi-Final, New York beat Warwickshire on a score of 1-8 to 0-6 in Abbotstown, which marked their first win on Irish soil.

New York played in Croke Park for the first time ever in the 2022 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship Final, but lost to Kilkenny on a score of 3-11 to 1-9. But the following year, they got their revenge by beating Kilkenny in the 2023 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship final on a score of 0-13 to 1-9. This also marked New York's first trophy win in Ireland and their first trophy in 56 years.

New York won their first Connacht Senior Football Championship match in 2023, beating Leitrim on penalties after drawing the match 0-15 to 0-15 after extra time.[1]

History

edit

In 1981, in front of a sold-out crowd of 5,000, the New York Select Carroll's All Stars defeated Galway (after a draw the previous Sunday) at Gaelic Park NY, to claim which cup?[clarification needed] This was the match at which Brian Quinn unfurled his "Carroll You're an Animal" banner.

Gerry Fox, the former Longford footballer, was appointed manager for the 2020 season.[2] But the team withdrew due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Gaelic games.

Under Johnny McGeeney's management, New York played against an opponent from outside Connacht in 2022, a first in championship history, Offaly the opponent and Tullamore the venue.[3]

Competitive record

League

edit

New York has three league titles.

1950: New York defeated Cavan in the final.[5][6][7][8][9][10]

1964: Dublin made the trip to The Bronx for the final, also billed as the "World Championship". A Brendan O'Donnell goal after half-time allowed NY to build up a seven-point lead, which a Dublin rally reduced to one point. Late in the game, players brawled on the field and were joined by a spectator, who received a black eye. New York captain Tom Hennessy scored a late point to seal victory.[11][12]

1967: Three-in-a-row All-Ireland SFC winner Galway was defeated in the final.[13][14][15][16][17]

New York participated in the FBD League until 2011.[citation needed]

Championship

edit

New York took part in the 1976 Munster Minor Championship losing to Kerry. New York first competed in the Connacht Senior Football Championship in 1999[18] and first competed in the Tailteann Cup in its first edition, in 2022. They also competed in the newly revamped All-Ireland Junior Football Championship in 2022, beating Warwickshire in the semi-final but losing in the final to Kilkenny in their first ever Croke Park appearance.

The 2010 championship brought the visit of Galway to Gaelic Park. Despite sustaining the loss of two players to sendings off early in the second half, New York gave The Tribesmen a scare, though the team eventually lost by a scoreline of 2–13 to 0–12.[19] In addition, in 2010, New York took part in the Connacht Minor Football Championship (MFC) for the first time. The team played Galway in its first game in that competition but sustained a heavy defeat. The New York minor football team travelled to Ireland to play in the Connacht MFC again the following year. History repeated itself, with another heavy loss to Roscommon.[citation needed]

New York took on 2010 Connacht SFC winner Roscommon at Gaelic Park on 1 May 2011. The team lost by a scoreline of Roscommon 3–21 New York 1–11.[20]

In the 2023 Connacht Senior Football Championship, New York recorded their first ever championship win, defeating Leitrim on penalties after the sides finished level at 0-15 apiece following extra-time.[1] New York remained winless in the Connacht SFC until their win against Leitrim in 2023, having lost four times each to Galway, Roscommon and Leitrim and five to Mayo and Sligo.[21]
