Longford Slashers is a GAA club located in Longford town. The club was formed in 1954 when Longford Wanderers and Shroid Slashers amalgamated.
Our ground, Michael Fay Park, is located on the outskirts of Longford town in an area called Farneyhoogan. In 1980 we moved to this location and since then our facilities are second to none. We currently have three playing fields, two of which have floodlights. Our clubhouse contains a bar, function room, meeting rooms, squash courts and several dressing rooms.
We also host Backstage Theatre and centre for the arts on our site. This is a purpose built theatre and provides high quality entertainment for the midlands.
On the playing fields to date Slashers have won 13 senior championship titles but are currently going through a barren spell the last title was won in 1994. Our current team manager, John Murphy, has built on the work of previous manager, Dessie Barry, to make the team competitive again. In the last two years we went close to regaining the title and we hope to continue the progress and win the title in the near future.
we have a thriving Minor Club which caters for all age groups, schools and organises very successful camps.
Our Hurling Club was formed around 1980 and the hard work of a few dedicated people ensure this great game is kept alive in the club.
