Ulster Junior Football Championship

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 5 min

The Ulster Junior Football Championship is a junior Gaelic football knockout competition organised by the Ulster GAA. The competition began in 1914, with Cavan winning during the inaugural title. The most successful county to date is Cavan, who have won on fourteen occasions. The championship was last played in 2023 with the team from Arva Cavan emerging victorious.[1] A number of counties such as Cavan and Fermanagh have participated in the Leinster and Connacht championships in recent years.

The winners of the Ulster Junior Football Championship each year progressed to play the other provincial champions for a chance to win the All-Ireland Junior Football Championship.
