An Tóchar (Irish pronunciation: [ənˠ ˈt̪ˠoːxəɾˠ]) is a Gaelic football and ladies' Gaelic football club based in Roundwood, County Wicklow, Republic of Ireland. [1]
Tóchar GAA club was founded on 8 August 1885 by Laurence Murphy of Togher House. Their first game was in March 1886 against Ashford. [2] In 1886 they took part in a tournament at Avondale House, where six Wicklow teams played six Wexford teams; Tochar defeated Rosslare 0-4 to 0-0.
The club declined and was replaced by a new team named Roundwood, who won the Wicklow Senior Football Championship in 1933. Later a club called Ballinastoe was dominant in the area; the two teams merged to form Ballinastoe/Roundwood, reviving the ancient name An Tóchar in 1981. [3] In 1995, An Tóchar won the Wicklow Senior Football Championship and advanced to the final of the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship, losing to Éire Óg, Carlow after a replay. [4]
The ladies' team has won eight county titles, and twice reached the final of the Leinster Ladies' Senior Club Football Championship.
