Sport

[edit]

The local Gaelic football team is "Bohola Moy Davitts", an amalgamated team consisting of Straide, Foxford and Bohola. Among the team's achievements are its "Feile Doire 2010" All-Ireland title.[3]

[edit]

Brendan Shine wrote a song called Three Pubs in Bohola.[citation needed] The three pubs listed in the song were MacDonald's, Clarke's and Roche's.[4] Since the song was written, Clarke's has closed as a pub but has since reopened as the local shop and Roche's is now "The Village Inn".[citation needed]
