Tuam Stars GAA

1

Tuam Stars are a Gaelic football team based in Tuam, County Galway.

History

In December 1887 Tuam's first football club was formed as an Association football team. Soon, the club came under scrutiny to conform to the Gaelic form of football. This change was opposed by a local newspaper, Tuam Herald, who suggested a newspaper campaign to insist on a proper code of rules. Despite this, in February 1889, the club switched to Gaelic football under the name Tuam Stars. They played their first game on St. Patrick's Day of that year.
