Research Notes
  • Note 1: 1905 final was replayed. In first game, Leo Casey's beat Killoe by 2-4 to 0-1 but due to objection the game was replayed.
  • Note 2: 1933 championship was played on a league basis with Granard finishing top of the league, hence no county final opposition.
  • Note 3: There is no record of Hurling Championship competition in 1906, between 1908 & 1931 and between 1935 & 1981.
  • Note 4: Longford Slashers played as Slashers Gaels until the 2010s.
  • Note 5: The 2011 Hurling final was not played. Clonguish had asked the County Board to postpone the hurling final until they had finished up in the county football championship because some dual players involved with their hurling team were also involved with the senior football team. This request was not done within the timeline permitted. Wolfe Tones of Mostrim turned up on the day and maintained that Clonguish failed to fulfill the fixture and that they should be awarded the title. In the meantime, Clonguish were knocked out of the football championship on 11 September and the Fixtures Committee set a new date for the Hurling final (9 October). Wolfe Tones refused to play on that date because they felt they fulfilled the original fixture and as far as they are concerned they are now the champions. No final was played and no title awarded.
