The Clare County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) (Irish: Cumann Lúthchleas Gael Coiste Contae an Chláir) or Clare GAA is one of the 32 county boards of the GAA in Ireland, and is responsible for Gaelic games in County Clare.

Cusack Park

Cusack Park (Páirc Uí Chíosóg in Irish) is a GAA stadium located in the town of Ennis, County Clare, Ireland. It is the home of the Clare Gaelic football and hurling teams. Named after the founder of the Gaelic Athletic Association, Michael Cusack, the ground has had a capacity of about 28,000 (mostly terraced), but following a 2011 safety review, the certified capacity was reduced to 14,864. Three sides of the ground are terraced, the two areas behind the goals and one terraced length of the pitch which is also covered. The finals of the Clare Senior Hurling Championship and the Clare Senior Football Championship are held each year in the stadium.

Hurling

Hurling has been played in Clare for centuries and Michael Cusack, founder of the GAA, was born in Carron in the north the county.

1914 saw Clare claim another Munster title when they beat Cork by 3-02 to 3-01. Clare then defeated Galway in the All-Ireland semi-final by 6-06 to 0-00 to reach the All-Ireland final for the first time their history. In the final Clare beat Laois by 2-04 to 1-02 and Amby Power became the first man to captain Clare to an All-Ireland hurling title.

In 1932, Clare captured another provincial title, defeating Cork on a scoreline of 5-02 to 4-01. They went on to contest the All-Ireland final, but lost to Kilkenny by 3-03 to 2-03.

The Revolutionary Years Under Ger Loughnane (1995-2000)

After losing Munster finals in 1993 and 1994, Len Gaynor was replaced as manager by Ger Loughnane. Clare made a return to the provincial decider in 1995 after a 2-13 to 3-09 victory over Cork in the semi-final. In the final minutes of the game, Cork were leading by two points when Clare earned a sideline which was taken by Fergie Tuohy. It travelled to the edge of the square, where Ollie Baker doubled on the sliotar, scoring a goal, to put Clare through. In the final, Clare faced Limerick. Clare dominated the game and ran out easy victors by 1-17 to 0-11. This was Clare's first Munster title in 63 years. In the All-Ireland semi-final, Clare played Galway. 2-01 from Ger O'Loughlin and 0-07 from Jamesie O'Connor saw Clare account for the tribesmen by 3-12 to 1-13. Offaly, reigning All-Ireland champions, awaited Clare in the final. In the second half, an Anthony Daly free rebounded off the post and fell to Eamonn Taaffe at the edge of the square, who sent the ball crashing to the back of the Offaly net. Clare ran out 1-13 to 2-08 victors.

In 1996, Clare were defeated in the opening round of the Munster Championship by Limerick on a scoreline of 1-13 to 0-15. This put an end to Clare's championship.

In 1997, Clare defeated Kerry and Cork to qualify for the Munster final against Tipperary. The match was held in Cork and Clare edged a tight affair by 1-18 to 0-18. Clare defeated Kilkenny by 1-17 to 1-13 in the All-Ireland semi-final. In the subsequent All-Ireland final, Clare were faced by Tipperary who went through the back door to reach the final. A late Tipperary goal saw the Premier county take lead but the teams were tied at 2-13 to 0-19 entering the closing stages. Jamesie O'Connor then scored a point to win Clare the All-Ireland. He finished the match with 0-07 and his outstanding performances throughout the year would see him win the Hurler of the Year award.

In 1998, Clare retained the Munster title. Clare defeated Cork by 0-21 to 0-13 to qualify for the final where they faced Waterford. A late goal from a Paul Flynn free tied the games at 1-16 to 3-10 and sent the match to a replay. Clare won out 2-16 to 0-10 winners. In the semi-final of the All-Ireland Clare faced Offaly. The game ended a draw, 1-13 apiece. In the replay Clare were leading in the closing stages by 2-10 to 1-16, however the referee accidentally blew the match up early. When the whistle blew there was disarray in Croke Park as the disgruntled Offaly supporters began a sit-down protest on the pitch. As the game hadn't been completed to 70 minutes, the semi final had to be replayed. On this occasion, Offaly won out by 0-16 to 0-13.

In 1999, Clare defeated Tipperary to qualify for the Munster final, and set up the possibility of Clare winning their third successive Munster title. Cork won on a scoreline of 1-15 to 0-14. In the All-Ireland quarter-final against Galway, Clare ran out victors by 3-18 to 2-14 after a replay. In the semi-final, Kilkenny beat Clare 2-14 to 1-13.

In the 2000 Championship, Clare lost their Munster semi-final to Tipperary on a scoreline of 2-19 to 1-14. This was to be Ger Loughnane's last match as Clare manager.

The Davy Fitzgerald Era (2012–present)

In 2012, Davy Fitzgerald began his tenure as Clare manager. At the time Clare had fallen down the game's pecking order, having not won a championship match since 2008 and they were also in the second tier of the Hurling League. Clare won Division 1B of the league to gain promotion for the following year. In the Munster Championship, Clare lost to Waterford by 2-17 to 1-18. Clare then faced Dublin in a Qualifier. In what was Tony Kelly's first senior game for the county, he scored 1-02 to help Clare win by 1-16 to 0-16.[1] In the next round Limerick beat Clare by 3-18 to 1-20.

In 2013, Clare won their Munster Quarter-Final against Waterford by 2-20 to 1-15, outscoring them by 2-12 to 0-06 in the second half. This was Clare's first win in Munster since 2008. In the Semi-Final, Clare lost to Cork by 0-23 to 0-15. Clare then beat Laois and Wexford in the qualifiers. This put Clare in the All-Ireland quarter-final where they beat Galway by 1-23 to 2-14. Munster Champions Limerick awaited Clare in the semi-final. An early Darach Honan goal helped Clare win out by 1-22 to 0-18 and qualify for their first final since 2002.[2] The All-Ireland final was held on September 8 and Clare were leading at half time. In the second half Cork scored three goals to get back into the game. With the sides level, Patrick Horgan scored to put Cork in the lead. Moments later, in injury-time, Domhnall O'Donovan pointed to send the game to a replay. Full-time score: 3-16 to 0-25.[3] On 28 September 2013, Clare won the replay by 5-16 to 3-16. Shane O'Donnell scored 3-03 to help Clare to victory. A Conor McGrath goal in the 61st minute was quickly followed by 3 points to put Clare 4-16 to 2-16 ahead. A late Stephen Moylan goal was cancelled out by a Darach Honan goal to see Clare win by 5-16 to 3-16.[4] Clare's centre-forward, Tony Kelly, was awarded the Young Hurler of the Year and Hurler of the Year awards.[5]

In 2014, Clare lost a Munster semi-final to Cork by 2-23 to 2-18. In Round 1 of the Qualifiers, 14-man Clare drew 2-25 apiece with Wexford.[6] In the replay in Wexford Park, despite being down to 13 men, Clare forced the game to extra-time before losing out by 2-25 to 2-22.[7] Clare hurling was dealt a further blow at the end of 2014 when it was announced that the Cratloe trio of Podge and Sean Collins and Cathal McInerney were focusing on football for the following year.

2015 began in a tumultuous fashion for the Clare team with two players, Davy O'Halloran and Nicky O'Connell, oping to leave the panel after they believed they were subjected to unfair disciplinary action. On the field of play, Clare lost four of their five league group stage matches before being relegated to Division 1B, afterlosing a play-off by 1-18 to 1-17 to Kilkenny. Clare also suffered defeat in the first round of the Munster Championship, losing to Limerick by 1-19 to 2-15. A comprehensive 3-26 to 0-15 win over Offaly put Clare into Round 2 of the Qualifiers, where they lost to Cork by 0-20 to 0-17.

In the final, they prevailed on a scoreline of 2-17 to 2-12 in Dungarven. Clare faced a highly fancied Galway side in the smi-final.

Senior Football

Clare have won 2 Munster Football titles at senior level.

A First Munster title And All-Ireland Final Appearance (1917)

Clare won their first Munster Senior Football Championship in 1917, defeating Cork on a scoreline of 5-4 to 0-1. This was after losing deciders in 1912 and 1915 to Kerry and in 1916 to Cork. Clare were then faced by Galway in the All-Ireland semi-final and emerged victorious by 2-1 to 0-5. However, in that year's All-Ireland Final, Clare were narrowly defeated by Wexford on a scoreline of 0-9 to 0-5. Wexford had won the All-Ireland in 1915 & 1916 and would complete a four in-a-row in 1918.

A Second Munster title (1992)

Clare football's greatest day since arrived in 1992 when, under the stewardship of John Maughan of Mayo, they won their second Munster Senior Football Championship by beating Kerry in the final in the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick by 2-10 to 0-12. This victory was aided in no small part by two second half goals from Colm Clancy and Martin Daly. This victory was also historic in that it is the only year from 1936 to the present day that neither Kerry nor Cork were crowned Munster champions. Clare's luck would run out however and in the All-Ireland Semi-final, they went down to Dublin on a scoreline of 3-14 to 2-12. Full back on the team of 1992 was Seamus Clancy, brother of full-forward Colm, and he was rewarded for his outstanding performances in the 1992 championship with a place on the All-Star team of that year.
