Clann ÃÂireann GAC is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in Lurgan, in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. Clann ÃÂireann GAC, part of Armagh GAA, incorporates a youth club. With a total membership of 1,500, the youth club and GAC provide a wide range of sporting, social and developmental activities throughout the year. The GAC provides Gaelic football and handball for boys and girls of all age groups from under 8s to senior level.
Formed in 1910, the club was only officially named "Clann ÃÂireann" (, "Children/Clan of Ireland") in 1937 after numerous name changes.
Clann ÃÂireann won the Armagh Junior Football Championship in 1945.
In the 1954 Armagh Senior Football Championship final, Clann ÃÂireann secured its first Senior title by defeating the neighbouring club, Clan na Gael, by 2âÂÂ04 to a single point. The dismal performance of Clan na Gael was despite its hosting the match. After a frustrating sequence of SFC final losses in 1959-62 (including the replay of the drawn 1960 decider), Clann ÃÂireann again won the Senior title in 1963, defeating Crossmaglen 3âÂÂ06 to 1-04.
The club won the Armagh Intermediate Football Championship in 1977, defeating Culloville 1âÂÂ13 to 1-05. The IFC title returned to the club in 2002, when they beat Carrickcruppen by 1âÂÂ11 to 0-09. In 2015 the IFC title was again Clann ÃÂireann's as they defeated Whitecross 2âÂÂ13 to 2âÂÂ8.
In 2021 the club won the Armagh Senior Football Championship for the third time defeating Crossmaglen 2-12 to 0-16 at the Athletic Grounds in Armagh.
The associated youth club, founded in 1954, celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2004.
