History

The first mention of Portumna in terms of Gaelic games comes in 1888 with regard to a junior Gaelic football game against Eyrecourt. The club remained in the background of senior club hurling until 1995 when Portumna contested their first county final. Victory on that occasion went to Sarsfield's. The 2000s saw a golden age for the club as it contested five consecutive county finals between 2003 and 200. Victory came in 2003, 2005 and 2007. Portumna also won provincial and All-Ireland honours during this period.
