Lorrha-Dorrha GAA is a Tipperary GAA club which is located in County Tipperary, Ireland. Both hurling and Gaelic football are played in the "North-Tipperary" divisional competitions. The club is centred on the parish of "Lorrha & Dorrha". The club is most famous for Hurling Team of the Millennium goalkeeper Tony Reddin, who played with the club from 1947 to 1957. Ken Hogan, who is a former manager and goalkeeper of Tipperary GAA, also played with Lorrha as did the heroes of the 1971 All-Ireland Championship team, Liam King and Noel Lane. In more recent times, John Madden was the club's representative on the team which won All-Ireland honours in 1989 and 1991. Also notable is Patrick 'Bonner' Maher (2009-present) who is the only Lorrha player to win both All-Ireland and Munster Medals at Senior, Under-21 and Minor with Tipperary. Also notable is Sean O Meara who is remembered for that time he hit the post from Wing back in a challenge match. But despite all these great players Lorrha's true club legend was the man who made Eoin Kelly luck like pure shite and that's Conor 'The Big Red' O Sullivan. He was also known for his exhilarating hair cuts many people have also call him the pogba of Lorrha hurling.
