St. James Gaels, or Gaeil Naomh Shéamais in Irish, are a Gaelic Athletic Association club located in Dublin, Ireland.

St. James Gaels GAA Club was formed in July 1994 as the result of the amalgamation of An Caisleán and Guinness GAA Clubs. Both of these clubs had been in existence for many years but were struggling due to the increasing age profile within their respective base areas. Rather than allow two clubs to go out of existence, both sets of club officers agreed, following negotiation, to pool resources with a view to forming one club serving Walkinstown and surrounding areas.[citation needed]
