Clann
na Gael was formed in 2003 in response to the demand for an Irish
soccer club in the Twin Cities and after a number of years without
a recognized Irish team.
The
club currently plays in the MRSL Division 1B as well as having a team
in the Holy Angels indoor league during the winter. The club is sponsored
by Cara Irish Pubs which includes the The Local and Kieran's in Minneapolis,
Cooper in St Louis Park and The Liffey in St Paul.
