Welcome to the Providence Hurling Club
|
Hurling is the national sport of Ireland and is widely regarded as "the fastest game on grass." It is also said to be the fastest growing sport throughout the world. Over fifty cities have hurling clubs throughout the U.S. The Providence Hurling Club, aka PVD HC, established in 2015, is a proud member of the Boston/Northeast Division of the US Gaelic Athletic Association. We are dedicated to help spread the word about this fantastic game and growing the sport throughout Rhode Island!

The Official Providence Hurling Club GAA Kit & New Sponsorships!
|
Excited to unveil the new jerseys for the Providence Hurling Club! A million thanks to our new main sponsor: Big Red Barn. A top modular structure design & manufacturing company from County Mayo who are expanding their business to the USA with Rhode Island as their second home base! Proud to wear their logo on our backs.
Also, a mighty tip o' the cap to Old Irish Social Club: The Home of the Hurlers for drinks and mayhem after matches and practices! We are delighted to rep them on our sleeves! Shoutout to Cheryl Kelly at O'Neills Sportswear for putting up with us throughout the design process: we love how they turned out! Check out our page on the O'Neills Sportswear website to buy your own.

The AMAZING progress we have created through five years of recruitment and hardwork!
After such a long journey, we have found five photos from our past five Providence Saint Patrick's Parades that show how much growth the Providence Hurling Club has gained. We have found so many amazing players over the past five years because of our recruitment techniques and we think these photos prove it! If you want to join the greatest hurling club in Rhode Island and represent the club in next year's parade, fill out a contact form, drop us an e-mail or just follow our FaceBook page and just show up to a practice and commit!
