In the distance is Coney Island , a small island which is about half a mile from the shore, and is reputed to be the inspiration for its more famous namesake in New York. In the foreground is the 'pier head' as it is called locally, a stone structured marker used by local fishermen. Nearby a swan is swimming on the water, as some gulls fly overhead. The crest was created by a talented artist who is a member of the club. It was first adopted for use on the playing jersey for the 1993 Armagh Senior Football Championship Final.
Gaelic football is the most popular field game in Ireland.
In most counties, Gaelic Football is more popular than hurling. The players can kick the ball, punch it with a clenched fist, or catch it in the air with their hands. Only the goalkeeper is allowed to pick the ball from the ground with his hands. The other players must raise it from the ground with a combined use of foot and hand. A player scores a goal by driving the ball between the goal posts below the cross-bar.
