Formation and development
Founded in 1896 as Brickey Rangers, the club did not have their first game until 1917. To determine the cost of a football, it was decided to go door-to-door throughout the Valley. The club's joint treasurers, Mike Linehan and Johnny Ronayne, collected money from locals at one end of the Valley and from Johnny Murphy and Jack Flynn on the Knockmaun side. The first jersey's worn by the club were all white. The first game played by the club was against Modeligo in Dempsey's field Dungarvan GAA. The club captured their only Waterford Senior Football Championship in 1963. They have been relegated from the senior ranks numerous times. In 1980, 1986 and 2014 they regained promotion to the Waterford Senior Football Championship by winning the Waterford Intermediate Football Championship.

Grounds
While the club was established in 1896, it did not have a permanent base until 1984 when six acres were purchased from the Bon Sauveur Sisters at Carriglea. This ground, approximately 5 km from Dungarvan, was subsequently named Bushy Park. In 2004, an additional adjoining 5.25 acres was purchased to provide a second full-size playing pitch and training area. In later years, they developed the facilities further with the addition of a hurling wall court, extended the club pavilion/additional dressing rooms, floodlighting, and additional car parking facilities.
