The logo was designed by Ray Wickham. He took inspiration from a banner designed by nuns in the local convent for a feile competition. The lighthouse represents Tuskar Lighthouse, Blue for the Sea and Yellow for the Sand. The lightboat represents the James Stephen Lightboat which rescued crew members from a Norwegian schooner (The Mexico) in 1914. For the efforts of Wickham and Duggan they received an All Ireland Hurling Medal. This is the only time outside the field of play that medals have been awarded.
