Ballyhegan Davitts GAA Club (also "Ballyhegan Davitts Cumann Luthchleas Gael") is a Gaelic Athletic Association club located in central County Armagh, Northern Ireland. It is affiliated with the Armagh GAA and is based in the parish of Kilmore which has two ends: Mullavilly and Stonebridge. It currently competes in football, at under 10, 12, 14, 16 and Minor levels, and its senior team competes in the Armagh Junior Football Championship and in the Junior Division of the All-County League. The club is named after the Irish patriot and agrarian leader, Michael Davitt (1846-1906).

Ballyhegan Davitts was founded in 1902, which makes it one of the oldest clubs in Armagh.

The Senior team featured in the first-ever Armagh Intermediate Football Championship final, in 1964, losing by a goal to Madden. The Davitts have since won the IFC twice, in 1975 (beating Oliver Plunkett's 0-13 to 0-06) and 1997 (beating Collegeland 1-09 to 1-08).

In 2010, the club's Minor team won the Armagh Division 3 County Championship, becoming the club's first ever under-age All-County Champions.
