Place & story

A home at Clanwilliam Park

Clanwilliam F.C. dates its foundation in Tipperary town to 1879. The club moved between several locations before establishing its home at Clanwilliam Park in 1956. Its own history identifies victory in the Munster Junior Cup in 1947 and the Munster Challenge Cup in 1996 among its major achievements. The account also connects the club with players Alan Quinlan and Tommy O’Donnell, recording O’Donnell’s start in rugby there. [2]
