Fermanagh (22) has the second smallest number of clubs of any county in Ireland, behind Longford (21). 21 of the 22 offer football, while Lisbellaw St Patrick's offers hurling.
The county team has never won an Ulster Senior Football Championship (SFC) but has contested the final on six occasions: 1914, 1935, 1945, 1982, 2008 and 2018.[1][2][3] Fermanagh is the only team in its province to have never won an Ulster SFC.
Having been established in the 1920s, Camogie was revived in Fermanagh by Father Tom Maguire in 1939[8] around a base in Newtownbutler and they contested Ulster senior championship finals in the 1940s. Enniskillen contested the Féile na nGael camogie first division final in 1977 and Teemore won divisional honours in 1993, 1994 and 1995.
Under Camogie's National Development Plan 2010-2015, "Our Game, Our Passion",[9] three new camogie clubs were to be established in Fermanagh and a county board formed by 2015.[10]
