Clomanto GAA was a Gaelic Athletic Association club located near Urlingford, County Kilkenny, Ireland. The club was primarily concerned with the game of hurling.

History

Located in the Clomanto area, on the Kilkenny-Tipperary border, Clomanto operated at junior level for much of its existence. The club hosted a game against Freshford during the GAA's Gaelic Sunday series of events on 4 August 1918.[1] [2] Clomanto won the Northern Kilkenny JHC title in 1922, in what was their only victory in an adult final in any grade in the club's history. The club lost the subsequent Kilkenny JHC final to Clonmore.[3] After a period of decline the club amalgamated with Urlingford under the new name of Emeralds in 1972.[4]
