Pitch
[edit | edit source]The Killanny Geraldines' GAA club pitch is situated on the Killanny road close to Essexford in County Louth. Each summer crumb rubber or sand is put on the pitch to help harden the ground. The pitch is built on what was a bog hence the soft ground.[citation needed]

[edit | edit source]The junior team has been in the lower reaches of Monaghan football for some time now. They recently won the Intermediate League Final and were subsequently promoted to the Senior League and Championship.[citation needed]

As of 2021 Killanny are playing in the Intermediate league in Monaghan.[citation needed]
