History
St Senans won the North Kerry Senior Football Championship for the first time in the clubs history after defeating the reigning champions Ballydonughue in Con Brosnan Park, Moyvane on the 9th of December 2018. The "Saints" successfully thwarted Ballydonughue's attempt at winning three consecutive titles, a feat not achieved in over 40 years within the district. Not only did St Senans win the championship but they also won Division 1 of the North Kerry League beating Brosna after extra time in a keenly contested game. 2018 will undoubtedly be recorded as one of the rural clubs finest in their eighty-four years of existence.
