History

St Patrick's Loup was formed in 1933 and won its first Derry Senior Championship three years later. Players on the team included Paddy Larkin, Fr Éamonn Devlin and Peter Donaghy. After disappearing from the top, they were a Junior side for many years, reaching the 1958/59? Derry Junior Football Championship final, where they lost to Glen.
In 1963 and 1964 St Finbarrs won the Derry Hurling Championship.
The current pitch was opened by Cardinal Tomás Ó Fiaich in 1981.
