Blacks and Whites GAA Club

Blacks and Whites GAA Club Blacks and Whites GAA club is a rural GAA club from Skeoughvosteen in north Kilkenny. We have GAA teams from under 8 right up to adult teams.

The Blacks & Whites Club was founded in 1925. In its infancy the club was closely associated with one man, Tom Walsh from Courtnaboughla, Skeoughvosteen. Tom went to school locally and attended Pallaskenry college Limerick, where he played hurling and football with the college. On his return home together with Jim Brennan, Mick Moran, the Kelly’s, the Power’s, the Moylan’s and others founded the B

lacks and Whites Club in 1925. Tom went on and became chairman of the Kilkenny County Board, Leinster Council and Vice President of Central Council of The G.A.A. The Tom Walsh Cup, the trophy presented to the Kilkenny Senior Hurling Champions anually, is presented in his memory. Tom also was Minister for Agriculture at the time of his death in 1952. On May 28th 1978, the Blacks & Whites opened its new grounds at Coolnabrone, Skeoughvosteen and named it Tom Walsh Park.
