The club has won many honours over the year's including the Laois Intermediate Hurling Championship twice, in 1937 and 1964.

Ballypickas returned to winning ways in 2007 with a great win in the final of the Laois Junior "B" Hurling Championship over The Harps and a win over St. Fintans, Colt in the final of the Laois Junior "C" Hurling Championship to complete a memorable championship double.
