About Shamrock Rovers

Shamrock Rovers are the most successful and best-supported football club in Ireland, a Dublin institution founded in 1901 that has won more League of Ireland titles than any other club and whose green and white hoops are the most iconic colours in Irish football. The Hoops have represented Ireland in European competition on numerous occasions and their rivalry with other Dublin clubs is the heartbeat of the League of Ireland. Playing at Tallaght Stadium in south Dublin, Rovers are a club steeped in over a century of history and one of the great institutions of Irish sporting life. Founded in 1901, Shamrock Rovers are based in Dublin, Ireland, and compete in the League of Ireland Premier Division. They play at Tallaght Stadium in Tallaght, south Dublin. The club are nicknamed The Hoops. Major honours include a record of more than 20 League of Ireland titles and multiple FAI Cup wins. Their home colours are green and white hoops. Rovers have been League of Ireland champions across multiple eras spanning more than a century. The green and white hooped home shirt of Shamrock Rovers is the most iconic design in Irish football, a visual symbol of the club's dominance and heritage. The hoops have appeared in various combinations over the decades, with the width and arrangement of the green and white bands shifting with different manufacturers. Classic versions from the 1980s and 1990s, produced by companies including Umbro, are particularly treasured by supporters. The recent title-winning kits from the 2010s and 2020s, as Rovers reasserted themselves at the top of the League of Ireland, have brought the hoops back to the forefront of Irish football.
