History edit
St Brigid's Hurling Club was founded in 1954 but didn't affiliate to the Westmeath County Board until 1957.[1] The club struggled in the early years,[original research?] however, senior status was secured for the first time after the Westmeath JHC title was won in 1964. After winning their first Westmeath SHC title in 1968, the club won three successive titles from 1970 to 1972.[2][3]
A Westmeath SBHC title was won in 1979. St Brigid's regraded to the newly restructured Westmeath IHC in 1994 and went on to claim five titles over the following 20 seasons.[4]
