Shelbourne FC’s badge is a red-and-white circular crest with “Shelbourne Football Club” around the outer ring, the founding year 1895 at the bottom, and three red castle towers in the centre.
The three castles are a historic Shelbourne symbol and echo Dublin’s civic heraldry, where three castles have long been used on the city’s arms. The red-and-white colour scheme reflects Shelbourne’s traditional identity and matches the club’s long-standing nickname, “The Reds.”
Shelbourne were founded in 1895 in the Shelbourne House hostelry on Grand Canal Street, Dublin, by James Rowan and a group of friends. The club took its name from nearby Shelbourne Road, and the current badge keeps that early Dublin origin visible through the club name, foundation year and three-castle motif.
