History
editGaelic games were introduced to the parish of Kilbarrack-Foxfield through the Scoil Lorcáin school, which had success in Cumann na mBunscol competitions in 1972, 1973, and 1974.
Following the interest created by these achievements it was decided to form a local GAA club. At a meeting attended by 8 people in Scoil Lorcain on 5 September 1974, Naomh Barróg GAA club was formed.
The club title being adopted after a 6th-century founder of a church in Kilbarrack, the remains of which still survive in Kilbarrack graveyard. In the club's first year, four teams were entered in North Dublin GAA competitions. The club fields football teams at all levels from U9 to Senior, hurling from U9 to Junior, and Ladies football from U10 to Junior.
The club has won two national Feile na nGael titles and has won a title at every football level from U10 to Intermediate.
The club ground, Pairc Barróg, was acquired in 1982, developed, and officially opened in September 1984. During its history, Naomh Barróg has expanded to include membership from the neighboring areas of Bayside, Baldoyle, Sutton Park, Donaghmede and Grange-Woodbine.
With full and social membership now totaling over 1000, Naomh Barróg's new clubhouse was opened on 14 July 2001.
Naomh Barróg currently have Senior Hurling status and play in Dublin Senior Hurling League Division 1. Naomh Barróg footballers currently have Intermediate status and compete in AFL Division 2.
