Torro Utd is located 5 miles outside Navan on the Kingscourt/Navan road. Torro Utd all began in 1970 when Robbie Leonard, Jimmy Bellew and Hugh McHugh held a meeting in Kilberry old school to see what interest there was in setting up a soccer team in the Parish. There was a great turnout and it was unanimously agreed that a club be formed. Robbie Leonard chaired the meeting and asked everyone to think of a name. When they met again a week later a variety of names were presented but it was the name that was put forward by Jimmy Bellew (the name of a former club in England) that was selected – TORRO UTD
At present Torro Utd is one of the biggest clubs in Co. Meath, fielding two Senior Men’s teams and one Senior Women’s team. Torro Utd’s 1st Team competes in the North East Football League Division 1 and Torro Utd’s 2nd Team competes in the North East Football League 3A Division.
