One of his elder brothers was an Irish Republican and Nationalist Thomas Addis Emmet, a close friend of Theobald Wolfe Tone, who was a frequent visitor to the house when Robert was a child.

In recent times Dromtarriffe have formed a Hurling team from good work at underage levels after sometime without a hurling team and are currently competing at Junior A Hurling level. Dromtarriffe's minor hurlers made the Cork Minor C Hurling Championship final in 2009 but were defeated by Cobh. In 2016, Dromtarriffe's hurlers won the Cork Junior B Interdivisional Championship after a replay against Sarsfields GAA in Páirc Uí Rinn. A week later, the clubs under 21 hurlers won their first ever Duhallow Under 21 'A' Hurling Championship against Robert Emmets.

The local hurling club, Éire Óg-Corrachoill CLG, is an amalgamation of two former clubs associated with the villages of Prosperous and Caragh. The local ladies football team, Robert Emmets, is made up of people from Raheens and Sallins, and trains in both Caragh and Sallins. Caragh Celtic F.C. is a local association football (soccer) team that plays home games at a pitch in Donore in Caragh. There is also a fishing club in Caragh that meets at the Liffey Bridge and on the Osberstown Road towards Sallins.

While a student at UCD, he was both the auditor of the Literary and Historical Society (the university's oldest debating society) and the co- founder and co-editor of The University Observer college newspaper. In 1994, he won the Irish Times National Debating Championship and The Irish Times/Gael Linn National Irish language debating championship; he is a fluent Irish speaker, and speaks to his father only in that language. He played both gaelic football and hurling for Bray Emmets and hurling for the Wicklow County minor team.

The name of the club in Clarecastle has been changed many times from "Robert Emmets", "Parnells" to "An Clar", "An Clar Mor", "Droichead an Chlair" etc., until 1971 when the historic name of "Clár Átha an Dá Choradh" was restored to the club and has remained ever since. The club remained without a home ground until the early 1980s when a first permanent site was purchased from St Flannans College at Clareabbey. That well-appointed grounds and clubhouse has since passed from the club in a roundabout way to the Clare County Board.

Quaid joined the Effin club at a young age and played in all grades at juvenile and underage levels before joining the club's junior team. On 31 October 2010, Quaid won a Limerick Junior Championship medal following Effin's 1-16 to 1-10 defeat of St. Kieran's. As a member of divisional side Emmets, Quaid was at midfield when the team was defeated by Kilmallock in the Limerick Senior Championship final on 3 October 2010. On 25 September 2011, Quaid was at centre-back when Effin defeated Ballybrown in the final of the Limerick Intermediate Championship.

Sporting clubs in the parish include Killoe Celtic soccer club, and Killoe Young Emmets Gaelic Football club comprising Killoe Senior Club, Killoe Óg Minor Club and Killoe Ladies Club. Ancient monuments in the area include a number of ringforts and mass rocks. A more recent memorial unveiled in 2012, commemorates the actions of local man James Farrell who helped to save two local women along with others during the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. The gates of the Carriglass Estate, known locally as the "Gandon Gates", were designed by architect James Gandon in the early 19th century.

Wicklow are one of two counties never to have won a senior provincial championship (the other is Fermanagh), but Bray Emmets, the leading side of the early 1900s, won Leinster and All-Ireland honours when they were playing in the Dublin Championship. Wicklow were twice proclaimed Leinster champions for short periods. Bray were representing Wicklow in 1889, and when they beat Newtown Blues of Drogheda by 1-7 to 1-4 they claimed that they had won the "final of Leinster" because Queens County or Kilkenny had not shown up for a final. But four days later the result was quashed.

The 2016 Longford Senior Football Championship is the 100th running of the Longford GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Longford, Ireland since the first County Championship was held in 1890 (99 completed since 1890, 1 started but not completed in 1891). The 2016 tournament consisted of 12 teams, with the winner going on to represent Longford in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage. Killoe Young Emmets were the defending champions after they defeated Abbeylara in the previous years final.

The club was founded in 1885, one year after the founding of the GAA. The club won its first ever Tipperary senior football championship title in 1890 and had to wait thirteen years before winning again in 1903 when the team won the title five years in a row in 1903, 1904, 1905, 1906 and 1907. The team was beaten the following year and the title was won by Cloneen but returned again in 1909 to take the title once more beating Clonmel Emmets in the final. It was another twenty two years before the team would win the title again in 1931.

The championship draw took place at 23 Maylor Street on the day after the closing date and "the utmost good feeling was displayed, and...the contesting parties were agreeably satisfied" as the draw took place. Seven clubs entered: Blarney (who later withdrew), Carrignavar, Emmets, Glanmire, Lees, Lisgoold, Midleton. All of the matches in the inaugural championship took place at a special enclosure in Cork City Park, with the first match taking place "in the presence of several thousand persons" on 6 March 1887. Mr. J. E. Kennedy acted as referee and Messrs E. Cotter and W. Sheehan performed the duties of goal umpires.

The Longford Senior Football Championship is an annual Gaelic Athletic Association competition organised by Longford GAA among the Senior grade Gaelic football clubs in County Longford, Ireland.

The former Irish international football manager, Brian Kerr, lives in Greenhills, having been brought up close-by in Drimnagh. Michael Carruth, a gold-medal winner in the welterweight boxing division at the 1992 Summer Olympics, is from the area. Association football is one of the main sports in the area, through clubs such as Greenhills FC and Manortown United, while Gaelic football is also played, with clubs such as Crumlin GAA, Robert Emmets GAC, St. Jude's (Templeogue), Faughs (Templeogue) and St. James Gaels. Community Games athletics and rounders are also played - the latter represented by Limekiln Rounders Club which has won a number of national titles.

On September 26, 1903, a meeting of those interested in Gaelic games was held in the Foresters Hall, Carrickmacross to elect officers and to establish the club to the County Board. By coincidence it was also the Centenary of the death of Robert Emmet; the identity formerly associated with the original Carrickmacross team; it was unanimously agreed to again adopt the name of the young Irish patriot! The following officers were elected at that meeting; (Captain) Owen Sherry (Vice Captain) J Jones; (Treasurer) Joseph Connolly; (Secretary) Thomas Markey. The following month the new Emmets travelled to Kingscourt to play the local Sinn Féin team in a challenge match.

He played as a youth for Irish club Manortown United, which was based at Greentrees Park, adjacent to Robert Emmets GAC (it not being unusual in Dublin to play two separate codes of football). After an unsuccessful trial at Fulham he signed professional forms with English club Arsenal in 1983. He was signed as a centre-forward, but also had a brief spell as a centre-half for the Arsenal third team. After scoring 18 goals in 18 reserve matches in the first half of the 1985–86 season, Quinn was included in the first-team squad for a match against Liverpool. Quinn scored in the match as Arsenal recorded a 2–0 win.

The official name of the competition is The Bernard O'Callaghan Memorial North Kerry Senior Football Championship, in honour of the late Bernie O'Callaghan (Beale) who was Chairman of the North Kerry GAA Board for 25 years (1974 to 1998) and did a huge amount of work for North Kerry football.

The 2020 tournament was originally supposed to consist of 10 teams, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic a total of 12 teams will compete this year (due to Rathcline and St. Mary's Granard receiving a reprieve from relegation to the 2020 I.F.C.) . The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage. Killoe Young Emmets are the defending champions after they defeated Longford Slashers in the previous year's final.

British intelligence had infiltrated the United Irishmen and managed to arrest most of their leaders on the eve of the rebellion. Though not among those taken at the house of Oliver Bond on 12 March 1798 (see Lord Edward Fitzgerald), he was arrested about the same time, and was one of the leaders imprisoned initially at Kilmainham Jail and later in Scotland at Fort George until 1802. Upon his release he went to Brussels where he was visited by his brother Robert Emmet in October 1802 and was informed of the preparations for a fresh rising in Ireland in conjunction with French aid. However, at that stage France and Britain were briefly at peace, and the Emmets' pleas for help were turned down by Napoleon.

This year was Rathcline's return to the top-flight for the first time since the 2016 season after claiming the 2018 Longford I.F.C. title. Interestingly the club also won the I.F.C. title in 2017 however they opted to stay in the middle grade for 2018 stating that "While we won the Intermediate Championship, it was decided to remain in the Intermediate championship for 2018 to allow our very young side develop further before embarking on Senior Championship". On 6 October 2019 Killoe Young Emmets claimed their 12th Senior Football Championship title and their first since 2015 when defeating Longford Slashers 0-12 to 0-11 in an exciting and close final at Pearse Park. Rathcline and St. Mary's Granard were supposed to be relegated to the I.F.C. for 2020, which should have ended their respective seven and one year tenures in the top-flight of Longford club football.

Well into the Edwardian era and interwar period, Cornwall was branded as a rural retreat, a "primitive land of magic and romance", and as an "earlier incarnation of Englishness, a place more English than an England ravaged by modernity".. Cornwall, the United Kingdom's only region with a subtropical-like climate, became a centre for English tourism, its coastline dominated by resort towns increasingly composed of bungalows and villas. Tourists visiting Cornwall are called emmets by locals, a Cornish language word for insects, referring to the creatures that the visitors resemble when swarming Cornwall's resorts. John Nichols Thom, or Mad Tom, (1799 – 31 May 1838) was a Cornishman self-declared messiah who, in the 19th century led the last battle to be fought on English soil, known as the Battle of Bossenden Wood. While not akin to the Cornish rebellions of the past, he did attract some Cornish support as well as mostly Kentish labourers, although his support was primarily of religious followers.

This was only achieved after a titanic struggle in a game that ebbed and flowed one way and the other in what many people have described as the greatest Wicklow hurling final ever. The U-13 team won through to the Wicklow-Wexford Cup final where they beat Ballyfad by 2 points in a very exciting final. 2008 was a very successful and also a very historic year for Glenealy Hurling Club, as not only did we retain their Senior crown, they also won our first ever Intermediate title. In the Minor B final we met Éire Óg and after a tough battle we won 1-13 to 3-5. The U-12s had an excellent year, winning the U-12A County final against Bray Emmets 1-3 to 0-3. In the 2009 Championship semi-final we met and defeated Arklow Rock Parnells 3-17 to 0-6 which set up another meeting with old adversaries Carnew, who we had beaten in the 2008 final.
