The Sean Treacy's club was founded in 1958 at 18 Marius Road, Tooting Bec, South London, and was named after Irish War of Independence fighter Seán Treacy (1895–1920). Its founding members were Mick Maunsell, Martin McGrath, Pakie Hourigan, Paddy Quinlan (all Limerick), Johnny Connolly (Galway) and Paddy Crowe (Tipperary). The team trained in Tooting Bec Common and reached the final in their first year. They were narrowly defeated by a single point by Brothers Pearse.
