Blast from the Past – Part 7 – Junior Champ

Junior Football Championship Finals

Part 7 — Finalists going back as far as 1917.

(This list is for the overall Leitrim Junior Championship. From 1932–1970, the North Leitrim winners played the South Leitrim winners in the County Final. In years where the North Leitrim winners did not compete, particularly during the Second World War, the South Leitrim Champions are regarded as County Champions: the North Leitrim Board was a subsidiary of the South Board. For most missing years there was no Junior Championship.)
