OTHER INFORMATION.

The club adopted its crest in 2008 to replace the old crest which was based on the Jerusalem Cross, a theme popularly adopted by other parochial organisations, although with no tangible link to the parish. The new crest depicts the geographical characteristics of the clubs catchment area. The rolling fertile valley of the golden vale, the river suir, and the hills and mountains which surround the area, are represented. The main feature is the traditional version of the true cross from which parish and club take their name.
