History
The club was founded on 12 July 1957 and is named after the Irish writer, activist and IRB member John Boyle O'Reilly, who had links to the town of Drogheda.
In the mid-1970s the club moved from their then home at Forest Grange to the Gaelic Grounds on Drogheda's North Road, which they lease on a long-term arrangement with Louth GAA.
