Standard colours
St. Patrick's GAC (Irish: CLG Naomh Pádraig An Lúb) is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in The Loup in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. It is a member of the Derry GAA.
The club's biggest success was winning the 2003 Ulster Senior Club Football Championship. They have also won the Derry Senior Football Championship three times.
Hurling
After being suspended from football for two years, a hurling club, St Finbarr's, was started, winning back-to-back Derry Senior Hurling Championships in the 1960s, before being disbanded.
History
St Patrick's Loup was formed in 1933 and won its first Derry Senior Championship three years later. Players on the team included Paddy Larkin, Fr Éamonn Devlin (who played for Armagh) and Peter Donaghy (played as goalkeeper for Derry). After disappearing from the top, they were a Junior side for many years, reaching the 1958/59? Derry Junior Football Championship final, where they lost to Glen.
In 1963 and 1964 St Finbarrs won the Derry Hurling Championship.
The current pitch was opened by Cardinal Tomás Ó Fiaich in 1981.
