They won the Intermediate championship at the first time of asking in 2004, but were relegated to Intermediate in 2006 and Junior in 2007, a very low point for the club. They won the Junior championship straight away in 2008, eventually progressing to the Leinster Junior Club Final, which they lost. They have retained Intermediate status since then, reaching the semi-final of the championship in 2011. At underage, St Mary's has had moderate success.
