History

Limerick won the first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship (SFC) in 1887 and repeated this success in 1896, when it became the first non-Leinster team to beat the then all-conquering Dublin in a championship match.

The team did not play in the Munster Football Championship (1941-1942) due to Foot and Mouth in 1941 (1949-1950) & (1953–1964).

Limerick plays in Division 4 of the National Football League.
