Louth Junior 2A Football League

The Louth Junior 2A Football League, or Division 4 of the county football Leagues, is an annual Gaelic football competition that was introduced by Louth GAA in 1941 and contested by the second teams of Senior clubs in County Louth. The captain of the winning team is presented with the Cairnes Cup.[1]

Format

edit

A Final to determine the winner was held annually until 2015, when the format changed. At the end of the league programme, the team with the most points is now awarded the trophy. If two or more teams finish level on points at the top of the table, a play-off will decide the winner. The team that finishes bottom of the league is relegated to Division 5.

Trophy

edit

The Ranafast Cup was presented to each winning team from 1944[2] until 1999.

This trophy was purchased with money from the Fr Larry Murray Memorial Fund[3] and is named in memory of the Gaelic games and Irish language enthusiast priest's close association with Coláiste Bhríde in Ranafast.[4] The Cairnes Cup was presented to the winners for the first time in 2000.
