Contents
St. Dominics is arguable the most complete GAA club in County Roscommon. They compete in both hurling and Gaelic football at all age groups as well as catering for Camogie, and Ladies Football. The club is one of the countries most enduring competitors in the GAA's talent competition — Scor — winning County Titles every year in all competitions.
St. Dominics was the home club of the legendary Jimmy Murray, captain of Roscommon GAA's All-Ireland Senior Football Championship winning teams of 1943 and 1944. Indeed, the club also supplied Phelim Murray, Jack McQuillan and Liam Gilmartin to that side.
