The Tyrone County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) (Irish: Cumann Lúthchleas Gael, Coiste Chontae Tír Eoghain), or Tyrone GAA, is one of the 32 county boards of the Gaelic Athletic Association in Ireland. It is responsible for Gaelic games in County Tyrone and for Tyrone inter-county teams.
Tyrone won their first Ulster Championship in 1956, defending it successfully in 1957. They did not win a third Ulster title until 1973. The Tyrone Minors, however, won the All-Ireland in 1947, 1948 and 1973. 1973 is remembered because Frank McGuigan, who captained the minor team, was also part of the Under-21 and Senior teams that won their Ulster Championships.
Tyrone first tasted success in the mid-eighties with a team that included McGuigan, Eugene McKenna, Plunkett Donaghy and John Lynch. They won their fourth Ulster title in 1984, and in 1986 they reached their first All-Ireland final, where they were beaten by Kerry, 2-15 to 1-10. They added another Ulster championship in 1989, beating Donegal in the final replay.
