Gaelic football

Underage development only really began in earnest in the early 1980s thereby making Two Mile House a relatively young club in real terms. From the late 1990s until recently the focus of the club had been exclusively on Gaelic football. The club men's senior football team is currently playing in the Intermediate Championship and League Division 2.

Some of the notable achievements of TMH players at county level include:

Hurling

The club now fields teams at several levels in underage hurling and this is an area which continues to grow and develop.

Camogie

The camogie club competed in the 1950s and 1960s, beating Caragh 5-0 to 4-2 to win the 1967 county championship. The team got to the Leinster in the 1956 inter-provincial final, and also being selected on the Kildare camogie team of the century. Two Mile House camogie club revived briefly in 1991 and enjoyed many years of underage success until the late 1990s.
