Longford has the distinction of being the first winner of the Leinster Minor Championship in 1929, beating Dublin by 3-4 to 1-4 in the inaugural final in Navan. Longford progressed to the inaugural 1929 All-Ireland Minor Football Championship final, losing to Clare by 5-3 to 3-5 in March 1930 (only Leinster and Munster involved in 1929). Leinster MFC competition actually began in 1928 with Longford losing to Westmeath by 3-4 to 2-4 in the first round, however that years competition was abandoned at the semi-final stage. Longford is one of only seven counties never to win an All-Ireland Minor Championship title (Wexford, Leitrim, Monaghan, Sligo, Kildare & Donegal are the others).
Longford has played 202 games in Minor Football Championship, Won 89 (44%), Drew 8 (4%) and Lost 105 (52%).
Longford’s most frequent opponents in Minor Football Championship are Westmeath (P30/W15/D2/L13) and Laois (P24/W8/D2/L14). Longford reached the Leinster MFC final eight times, winning five and losing three. Longford has played every other Leinster county in MFC down the years. Longford competed in the All-Ireland Minor series six times – 1929, 1938, 2002, 2010, 2015 & 2024 . Longford has played Clare (1929), Cavan (1938), Leitrim (2002), Derry (2002 & 2015), Galway (2010) and Armagh (2024) in the All-Ireland Minor series over the years. The Leinster MFC structure was straight knockout from 1928 to 2001 and then changed to round-robin structure from 2002 to 2006 and then changed in 2007 to having a Loser Qualifier route for 1st round losing teams to win reentry to the knockout stages. The structure reverted back to straight knockout briefly in 2008 and then back to the Loser Qualifier structure from 2009 to 2017. In 2018 a group structure was introduced with round-robin games within each group ahead of knockout stages, while the grade was also changed from U-18 to U-17. This group structure has remained in place since 2018 with exception of 2020 which was straight knockout due to constraints caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Note 1: The 1930 Provincial Championships were delayed due to weather. As the planned fixture dates for the All-Ireland MFC approached, teams were nominated from the unfinished provinces. Dublin was nominated from Leinster despite the fact that Longford were reigning Leinster Champions at the time. Dublin won the All-Ireland MFC beating Mayo in the final. The Leinster MFC final then took place the following week with Dublin beating Longford.
Note 2: Since 2018, counties exiting the Leinster MFC prior to semi-final stage proceed to the Minor Football Shield competition which is open to all Leinster counties failing to progress to the last four of the provincial Championship proper. Longford won the Leinster MFC Shield in 2018 defeating Dublin in the final by 1-13 to 0-11, and in 2019 by defeated Wexford in the final by 3-15 to 2-5. The cup for this shield competition was the Seamus Heaney Cup, however in 2024 that cup was repurposed for the All-Ireland ‘C’ MFC instead. Shield games are not captured on this page and not included in MFC stats or records above.
