History

edit

First contested in 1972, the inaugural winners were Cooley Kickhams. As is the case nationally, amalgamated parish teams were a regular feature of the competition due to lack of numbers. The county board removed the competition from the calendar in the mid-1980s but it returned in 1991. The competition has on occasion been run as an under-20 tournament,[1] in line with changes introduced by the GAA in 2018.[2] It reverted to the U-21 format in 2022. The county board scrapped the competition in 2023, when a new under-19 football championship was introduced in its place.[3]

The McGeough Cup was presented to the captain of the winning side.[4]
