Knocknagree GAA

Knocknagree GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the village of Knocknagree in the north-west of County Cork, Ireland.

Although approximately one mile from the border with Kerry, Knocknagree is officially in the parish of Rathmore with the majority of this parish in Kerry putting Knocknagree in front line when it comes to Cork-Kerry rivalry.

The club plays Gaelic football in the senior grade in Cork after winning the 2017 Cork County Junior Championship for the 3rd time defeating Erin's Own in the final.

The main pitch out of 3 has been floodlit since 2006. In 2007 it hosted the first Duhallow Junior A Football Championship final to be played under lights. Ballydemond were victorious over Dromtarriffe on the occasion.

The club crest was designed in 2002 and features a horse's head in the centre, a traditional Irish fiddle (left upper corner), and an open book (right upper corner). A Blackwater bridge (with a leaping salmon) in the lower foreground symbolises the club's border location.

On 19 September 2015 Knocknagree bridged a 24 year gap to win their eleventh Duhallow Junior A Football Championship, beating Lyre GAA in a replay by a scoreline of 1-12 to 0-04.
