Melvin Gaels was formed as a GAA Club in the Courthouse, Kinlough in 1953 named after Loch Meilge. Melvin Gaels entered a Junior Championship in 1954 which they won in 1955 and reached the 1956 Senior final. They weren’t to be denied for long and won their first Senior title in 1959. That success was repeated in 1960,1961, 1962 and 1965.
A wait of 32 years then followed before Melvin Gaels reclaimed the title in 1998. Melvin Gaels most recently won in 2012 one year after securing an Intermediate title.
