Cleveland St Pat’s-St Jarlath’s, branded simply as Cleveland GAA, is the only Cleveland club in the USGAA Midwest Division directory. It has more than 75 years of history behind it, five North American senior football titles from the 1960s, and national titles in hurling, camogie and ladies football in the last few seasons.

Two Saints, One Club

St Pat’s was established in Cleveland in 1948. St Jarlath’s followed in 1980, and for years the city had two Gaelic football clubs. Both won national junior titles, St Jarlath’s in 2005 and 2006 and St Pat’s in 2015, and the two came back together after that 2015 win. The club celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2023 by hosting the Midwest GAA finals in North Olmsted, with Achill GAA from County Mayo visiting to mark a 20-year link between the clubs.

Home is Páirc na Naomh, the Saints’ Field, at the West Side Irish American Club in Olmsted Township. The club now covers men’s and ladies football, hurling, camogie and youth teams, and it takes new players all season, many of them complete beginners.

The 1960s Kings of North America

St Pat’s won the North American senior football championship five times in seven years, in 1962, 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1968.

The modern club has kept winning at junior level. The men’s footballers took the USGAA Junior C title in Denver in 2023, going 3-0 at the finals under head coach Jim Coyne. The hurlers won national Junior D in 2023 and Junior C in 2024. In 2025 the camogie team won the Junior B national cup after losing three previous finals, and the ladies footballers won Junior C, their second national title in four years.

2026: Ireland Tour and Canton

The 2026 calendar opened with a planned hurling and camogie tour of Ireland in early May and the club’s Memorial 7-a-side football tournament at the West Side Irish American Club on 16 May. At the USGAA Finals in Canton, Massachusetts in August, Cleveland had teams in men’s Junior B football, ladies Junior B football, Junior B hurling and Junior A camogie.

Cleveland Ohio GAA

The club’s jerseys are made by Masita and sold under the name Cleveland Ohio GAA, with home, hurling, goalkeeper and special edition versions. Local coverage often refers to the club’s teams simply as the Saints.

This FanFile covers Cleveland St Pat’s-St Jarlath’s as a club rather than one particular jersey. Check the crest, sponsor, manufacturer label and product code on your own shirt to identify its specific season and edition.
