History

Mount Leinster Rangers GAA club was founded in 1987 and the amalgamation of three existing club teams—Borris, Ballymurphy and Rathanna—within the parish was completed in 1988.

Since then it has enjoyed great success in all grades of Gaelic football, hurling, camogie and Ladies' Gaelic football.

On 1 December 2013, Mount Leinster Rangers won their first ever Leinster Senior Club Hurling Championship title after an 0–11 to 0–8 win against Oulart the Ballagh in the final.[1][2][3]

Tom Mullally managed the club's hurling team to that Leinster title and to the final of the 2013–14 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship.[4][5]
