Rinn Ó gCuanach CLG is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in the Irish speaking (Gaeltacht) area of Ring, County Waterford, Ireland. The club enters teams of both GAA codes each year, which includes two adult Gaelic football teams and two adult Hurling teams in the Waterford County Championships. It is one of a handful of dual clubs at senior level in the county, competing in the Senior Hurling and Senior Football championships. The club's second string teams take part in the Waterford Junior Hurling & Football championships.
On 21 October 2012, An Rinn won its second intermediate hurling county final. The game was played in Páirc Uí Fhearchair and the scoreline was An Rinn 1-14 Portlaw 0-4. An Rinn wore white jerseys on the day, as the Portlaw colours are similar. This win saw An Rinn return to dual senior status in Co. Waterford in 2013. An Rinn beat Cappoquin in the Western Final 2-10 to 0-14 on 29 September in Páirc Uí Fhearchair.
In the 2012 senior football county championship, An Rinn were defeated in the quarter final by Ballinacourty on a scoreline of 1-13 to 2-7 (a 3 points margin).
The club won the Waterford Intermediate Hurling Championship for the first time in its history in 2008, when St. Mollerans were defeated in the County Final on a scoreline of 3-05 to 2-05. In the West Waterford intermediate hurling championship, Rinn O gCuanach emerged from a group containing Clashmore, Geraldines, Cappoquin and Shamrocks, before accounting for Lismore, Clashmore and Brickey Rangers to capture the Western crown for the first time in club history. The club had contested the 2004 and 2007 West Waterford Intermediate Hurling Finals, losing to Shamrocks and Dungarvan.
The club has won the County Intermediate Football Championship twice, 1996 and 2005. De La Salle were overcome in both these finals.
