Portumna Town in North Tipperary football
Portumna Town FC connects the Galway town with North Tipperary and District League football, cup games and practical local pathways.
Portumna Town identity
Portumna Town FC is the town football club for Portumna, a Galway town with a strong sporting community and regular adult football links into North Tipperary competition.
The club name appears in North Tipperary and District League football, SFAI youth football routes and cup football. That makes Portumna Town a useful bridge between local Galway families and the North Tipperary league calendar.
Venue and match visit
Portumna Town fixtures can use Church Road Portumna or Lorrha, so the named venue should always be confirmed before travelling. That matters for visiting teams because Portumna and Lorrha sit on opposite sides of the local football catchment.
For match day planning, check the team grade, competition, start time and whether the game is in Portumna or Lorrha. The safest map check for the Portumna option is Church Road in Portumna.
Primary travel check: Church Road, Portumna. Some fixtures can use Lorrha.
North Tipperary league football
Portumna Town plays in the North Tipperary and District League environment, with First Division football and local cup activity forming the main adult competition thread.
The club has appeared in the NTDL First Division, Kevin Fogarty Tipperary Cup, Barry Cup, First Div Shield and Munster Junior Cup. Those competitions give Portumna Town a broader calendar than league matches alone.
2023 and 2024 campaign detail
The 2023 and 2024 First Division table placed Portumna Town third after 14 matches. The team finished with seven wins, two draws and five losses, scoring 49 and conceding 26 for a goal difference of 23.
That league return shows a side that could score freely while competing near the upper end of the division. The same season also included cup activity against Holycross AFC, Sallypark Odhrans, Cloughjordan FC and Rearcross FC.
Cup context
Portumna Town reached a Kevin Fogarty Tipperary Cup semi final in May 2024, playing Rearcross FC in a five goal tie. The 2025 cup calendar also put Portumna Town into Munster Junior Cup action away to Blackcastle Templemore Harps at Michael Fennell Park.
Those fixtures give the club extra competitive markers beyond the First Division table. They also help parents and visiting players understand why the calendar can include local league games, local cup games and wider Munster fixtures.
Colours and teamwear
Portumna Town’s away colours are yellow with blue shorts, and the current teamwear range uses blue and yellow as a clear visual identity. The match day check should include sock colour and any clash guidance before travel.
The teamwear route is useful for families because it gives a practical way to identify current kit options for younger players and supporters. Match kit can still vary by team, so final kit guidance should come from the team contact.
