Honours

[edit]

The trophy presented to the winners is the Shaw Cup.

The winners of the Laois Junior Championship qualify to represent their county in the Leinster Junior Club Football Championship. The winners can, in turn, go on to play in the All-Ireland Junior Club Football Championship. They often do well outside the county, with the likes of Rosenallis (2016) and Park–Ratheniska (2006) among the clubs from Laois to win at least one Leinster Championship after winning the Laois Junior Football Championship.[2][3] The winners enter the All-Ireland at the quarter-final stage, unless drawn against the British champions in the quarter-finals.[4]

History

[edit]

The Laois Junior A Football Championship was first held in 1906, with Durrow the victors.[5]

In the mid-1990s, Rosenallis won the Junior Championship and then went on to win the Intermediate Championship back-to-back.[6]

Laois full-back Martin Dempsey played in the 2004 final, at centre-forward.[7]

In 2016, Rosenallis won a dual championship — junior football and intermediate hurling.[8][9]

Laois players Tom Kelly (2003 All Star and 2005 International Rules Series Player of the Series) and Noel Garvan (who also won a Leinster Senior Football Championship in 2003) were involved in the 2017 final.[10]
