The ground was originally owned by Cobh Ramblers. In January 2009, the club's members proposed selling St Colman's Park to the
Football Association of Ireland (FAI) in order to clear the club's debts. The club would then lease the ground back and continue to play at the venue. Although the FAI initially declined to purchase the ground, they later agreed to a
leaseback arrangement. In July 2021, Cobh Ramblers agreed a new 99-year lease with the FAI for St Colman's Park. ==Use==
