Fr. Murphy AC was formed in 1970. The Club moved quickly to secure premises and acquired a long lease on a recently decommissioned school building in Frayne, near Athboy. Shortly after, a 17-acre field adjacent to the school became available, and after much effort and fund-raising by club members and locals the field was secured from the Land Commission. The field now sports a 400-metre grass running track, a 1 Km walking/jogging all-weather track and a purpose-built hammer cage. Indoor facilities provided include a weight lifting shed, indoor long jump and high jump facilities. Club Juvenile Training takes place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, from 7pm to 8pm.
