Gaelic games in Desertmartin stretch back to 1885 and in 1933 St. Martin’s G.A.C was formed with a county minor league in 1945 the first recorded honour.
The most successful decade for the club was the 1950’s during which time the club won the Junior Championship in 1950, with this team going on to win the Ulster title. In 1953 the senior team achieved it’s greatest success, winning the Senior Championship for the first and only time. In 1968 the club again won the Junior Championship.
Since 1970 the club have been highly involved in Scór, with junior quiz, senior set dancing and junior céilí dancing teams having reached the All Ireland stage
