About Corofin
  
Corofin is one of the biggest parishes in the Archdiocese of Tuam. The ecclesiastical name of the parish is Cummer and Kilmoylan. The parish priest resides in Corofin and the curate always resided in Belclare. The population of Corofin has been growing steadily in recent years and over one hundred new houses alone have been constructed in the hinterland of Corofin village itself inside the last five years.
 
In a recent calculation there are now 820 families approximately in the Corofin side of the parish. The number of baptisms in the church of St. Colman in Corofin last year came to sixty-nine. Newcomers the parish, have a number of organisations to chose from if they wish to be become involved in the community – a number of which we list below.
 
Strangers often associated “Corofin” in Co. Clare which was made famous by Percy French, but now our Corofin is well known throughout the entire country mainly through the great success of the G.A.A. club both on and off the field.

G.A.A. CLUB
For the youth of Corofin it can well be argued that the local G.A.A. club is one of the most important assets in the parish.

The Club is one of the most successful units in the entire country having been honoured for various reasons over the years culminating in 1998 with the winning of the All Ireland Club football championship. Many of it’s players have won All Ireland medals and Ray Silke captained the All Ireland winning Corofin and Galway teams in 1998. The club has an excellent underage structure and competes in all grades, promotes ladies football and participates in all the Scór competitions at every level each year since their inception capturing numerous All Ireland titles, and the present County Solo Singing champion in Scór na nÓg is Claire Igoe.
 
The present G.A.A. pitch was financed mainly from income derived from annual carnivals held in Glynn’s field at the Corofin – N17 crossroad. A new stand and dressing rooms were added. This year work is underway to revamp the facility by providing new flood lights and sideline seating. The playing area is also being enlarged. A €100,000 government grant is to be matched with a similar amount through local fundraising. The people of the parish recognise the great work of the club, and the great effort put in by many members which has resulted in a generous response.
