From the heart of Kerry. Fossa GAA are a proud Gaelic football club from the village of Fossa, nestled on the shores of Lough Leáne just outside Killarney. Founded in 1970, Fossa carry more than 50 years of Kerry GAA tradition with enormous community pride. And right now, they are home to the greatest Gaelic footballer on the planet.

History

Founded in 1970, Fossa GAA are a relatively young club by Kerry standards. The club is based in the village of Fossa, a small community on the western shore of Lough Leáne in the Killarney area — one of Ireland's most beautiful landscapes and the heartland of Kerry GAA.

Fossa won the All-Ireland Junior Club Football Championship in January 2023 and, in September 2026, beat Kilcummin in the Kerry Intermediate Football Championship final to earn senior status in the county for the first time. Like all Kerry clubs, they do so in the shadow of one of Gaelic football's greatest county teams, and the standard that Kerry GAA demands is felt at every level of the game in the county, from the most senior club right down to Fossa's own pitches by the lake.

Colours & Identity

Red and black — Fossa's colours worn with Kerry pride. The red and black of Fossa GAA stands out in a county better known for green and gold, a bold kit for a small club with a big reputation. A kit worn with the quiet pride of a community that has been playing Gaelic football for more than 50 years.

Notable Players

Featured Player
David Clifford
The greatest Gaelic footballer of his generation — and many would argue of all time. David Clifford is a Fossa man through and through, and his rise from the club's underage ranks to becoming Kerry's talisman and the most feared forward in the game is one of the great stories in modern GAA. A six-time All-Star, three-time Footballer of the Year, All-Ireland winner with Kerry in 2022 and 2025, and the benchmark against which every forward in Gaelic football is now measured, Clifford plays with a combination of power, skill, and footballing intelligence that is simply without equal. To have produced him is Fossa GAA's greatest achievement — and the whole of Kerry knows it.
Also from Fossa
Paudie Clifford
David's older brother and a Kerry senior footballer in his own right. Paudie Clifford is a versatile, intelligent player and a four-time All-Star who has made significant contributions to Kerry's All-Ireland campaigns and is a key figure in the Fossa club. The Clifford brothers are the most celebrated footballing siblings in Kerry — and arguably in the history of the GAA — and both proudly wear the red and black of Fossa at club level.
