Annual Gaelic football competition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The All-Ireland Junior Club Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by the GAA. It is played between the Junior championship winners from each of the thirty-two counties of Ireland. Each team competes in their own provincial championship, with the four provincial winners competing in the All-Ireland. The competition has a straight knock-out format. It was first held in 2002 as an unofficial tournament, and has been an official GAA championship since the 2004–05 edition.
