Cockhill Celtic F.C.
Cockhill Celtic Football Club is an Irish association football (soccer) club based in Buncrana, County Donegal. The club's senior men's team plays in the Inishowen Football League.
The club qualified for the FAI Cup in 2014.
Cockhill Celtic Youth and Football Club was founded on 28 October 1970 as Westbrook Celtic by a group of men — which included Michael Doherty and Joe McLaughlin — who played football in Buncrana. The club originally played their matches on a pitch called Coneyburrow, on the Castle Grounds in Buncrana, while they competed in both the Derry & District Football League (D&D League) and the Inishowen Football League. They moved to Cockhill and became 'Cockhill Celtic' in 1974, and moved into the Inishowen Football League. They remained there until 2005, when the club transferred to the Ulster Senior League.
After the 1984–85 season, the club decided to apply to the Ulster Senior League. In 1989, the association football club amalgamated with the local youth club to become collectively known as 'Cockhill Celtic Youth and Football Club'.
The club qualified for the FAI Cup in 2014.
Gavin Cullen was appointed manager in June 2015, replacing Donal O'Brien. The former Finn Harps goalkeeper initially took over as player-manager, having previously managed the youth side.
In April 2024, Cockhill became champions of the Inishowen Football League Premier Division after defeating Greencastle 2–0.
The club grounds are named after long-time chairman Charlie O'Donnell (chair from 1978 until his death in 2007). The ground seats 1,000 people and is located on Cockhill in Buncrana. The club also has two astroturf pitches.
