St Vincents is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in Marino, on the northside of Dublin, Ireland. The club was founded in 1931 in Marino, instrumental in the founding of the club were Rev Dr William Fitzpatrick (St Vincent de Paul Church, Marino)[1] and Bro. Ernest Fitzgerald (Scoil Mhuire CBS, Marino).[2] Although its club grounds were in Raheny for a number of years, it moved to its home back into Marino in 1987. St Vincents merged with Marino Camogie Club in 1997 to form the St. Vincents Hurling, Football and Camogie Club.[3] They have won the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship on three occasions, most recently in 2014.[4] They are the most successful side in the Dublin Senior Football championship having won the title 29 times.
