An Charraig Mhór Naomh Colmcille G.F.C. is currently the most successful club in the history of Tyrone. The first record of Gaelic football being played in Carrickmore can be found in "The Ulster Herald" in Dec. 1906, however it was not until 1932 that Club Naomh Colmcille was founded and affiliated to the West Tyrone Board.

It was on April 17th 1932 that the club's first official match was played against Augher in James Grogan's field. Since then it has gone from strength to strength and with the exception of a few barren years has become the most formidable Gaelic football force in the county.
An Charraig Mhór won a host of St. Enda cups from the 1930's through to the 1970's, but it was in 1933 that the club's longstanding romance with the O'Neill cup began. To quote "The Carrickmore Tradition",

"The Carrickmore players, officials and spectators could not possibly have imagined what fascination this competition would have for future generations of Carmen folk. From that date to the present day, year in year out, the companionship of O'Neill has been sought after by Carmen."

In 1941 Club Naomh Colmcille eventually won that elusive prize, beating Dungannon in the championship replay by 1-5 to 0-4 (1940 Championship). Since then our club has won the cup more times than any other team in the county and now proudly holds the record of 13 Championship titles . In the late 1970's, Carrickmore became one of an elite number of clubs to win the O'Neill cup three years in a row.

An Charraig Mhór has the envious distinction of being the only club in Tyrone to have remained in senior football ranks since its inception. The club, having collected the Division 1A League tittle in 2000, now also hold the record of eight All-County league titles , one more than Trillick.
