History

Erin's Own Cargin, (Clann na hÉireann, Carraigín) based in Toome, Co Antrim, in the Parish of Duneane, was founded in 1923 by a Priest from Tyrella, Ballykinlar, Co. Down called Fr Dan Magennis. The club prides itself as a key member of the communities around the Feevagh, welcoming those of all faiths, backgrounds, ethnicities and persuasions.

Another GAA club formed in Toome in 1926 called Lámh Dhearg, and who won the 1929 Antrim Senior Football Championship but eventually folded, its members then joining Cargin. Cargin were one of the first clubs in Ireland formed during the turbulent period after the partition of the country and the erection of a border between the Irish Free State and the new Northern Government. Erin's Own was a key part of ensuring the social bonds of the people in the area were kept intact. Clann na hÉireann means 'The Children of Ireland' which was a declaration that the people of Cargin would always be 'of Ireland', regardless of Partition or Government.

The Erin's Own club played the first "official" games of rounders in Ireland in June 1958 and were instrumental in its promotion. The club continues to offer a sporting and social outlet for the community ensuring healthy lifestyles and positive attitudes. [2]
