During the 1970s and 80s Buffers Alley made an impact on the football scene in Co. Wexford. They created a surprise in 1972 in winning the county junior football title. Proving this to be no flash in the pan, they won the Intermediate football final in 1974 and completed in senior ranks for a number of years. They returned to Intermediate ranks in the mid 80's and once again were successful in the Intermediate football championship in 1989.
