History

The club was founded in 1969, replacing the St. John’s Hurling Club that started back in 1887.

O'Loughlin Gaels are one of the most successful Kilkenny clubs of the new millennium, winning county titles in 2001 and 2003.

In 2003, they went on to claim their first Leinster senior title. In January 2011, they claimed their second Leinster title after a 0-14 to 1-8 win against Oulart-the-Ballagh in the final.

The club was named AIB Club of the Year in 1983.
