2004 Hall of FameWinner Jim Boland with brother Tom. Jim starred at centre back on the Clonmore minor team which won the Minor Championship in 1963 captained by Tom. Unfortunately that game was lost on an objection. Jim went on to play in the Senior County Final in 1963 and League Final in 1965. Along with Tom he was a mainstay of the Clonmore team throughout the 1960s. When his playing days were over, Jim joined the Committee and has been Joint Treasurer of the Club for nearly 20 years.

Tom Boland won the Hall of Fame Award in 1999 after a long and distinguished career for Clonmore and Carlow. Tom was an outstanding footballer with great hands and a trusty left foot. He played centre field or full back and was at full-back when Clonmore won the Intermediate Championship in 1980. Tom has also continued his involvement with the club since he finished playing and has served as a Selector with the Senior team.
