Cuala Gaelic Athletic Association [ˈkuəl̪ˠə] is a Dublin GAA club based in a sports and social centre in Dalkey which is situated in the south of County Dublin, Ireland. Cuala has playing facilities in Dalkey, Glenageary, Meadow Vale/Clonkeen Park, Shankill and Sallynoggin.
The club name derives from Cualu or Cuala, an ancient kingdom of Ireland that stretched roughly from the Liffey to Arklow.[1]
History
The club won consecutive All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championships in 2017 and 2018.[2]
The club replaced the Davy Group of stockbrokers as its jersey sponsor with biotech company Amgen in 2019 as part of a deal that attracted notice outside the area.[2] Huawei sponsors the hurlers.[3]
