History

On 15 November 1982, on the initiative of the then chairman of the East Kerry GAA Board Seán Kelly a meeting was called for the Park Place Hotel with the aim of setting up a Club to promote hurling in the division. Among those present were Connie Carroll Runai E.K.B, Pa Doyle, Gerald Landers, Brother Justin, Derry Crowley, Johnny Culloty, Michaell Culloty, Tadhgie Fleming, Joe Doherty, Liam McGuire Tom Holohan, and Noel O'Connor. It was decided that the name of the Club would be St. Patricks East Kerry GAA Club.

The Club has enjoyed varying levels of success with the winning of the Kerry Intermediate Hurling Championship in 1983 and 1990 and the County League division 2 in 1985, being chief among them.
