The club was founded in 1889, and first fielded a team against Westport at Kilmeena on 10 March 1889.[1] The club's grounds, Saint Brendan's Park, was opened in 1938, with additional facilities opened subsequently, including a new club house which was opened (by Pat Holmes) in 2000.[1]

Primarily involved in Gaelic football, Kilmeena won the All-Ireland Junior Club Football Championship in 2022.[2]
