The FBD Insurance League, also called the FBD Connacht League, the Connacht FBD Football League, is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by Connacht GAA and sponsored by FBD. The participants are the five county teams.
Formerly several third-level college teams also competed, but from 2018 onward it became an all-county tournament. In 2019 and 2020 it was a knockout tournament with no league element, and so it was called the FBD Insurance Connacht GAA Senior Football Competition.[2] It was cancelled in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but returned in January 2022.[3]
Galway lead the way with most titles.
