Derry county football team

Football Codes

The Derry county football team represents Derry GAA, the county board of the Gaelic Athletic Association, in the Gaelic sport of football. It competes in the three major annual inter-county competitions, the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, the Ulster Senior Football Championship and the National Football League. Its home ground is Celtic Park in Derry and the team is nicknamed the Oak Leafers. Derry won its first Ulster title in 1958, and the 1990s proved its most successful decade: it won the 1992, 1995 and 1996 National League titles and, in 1993, the Ulster Championship and the county's only All-Ireland Senior Football Championship to date. The team won the Ulster Senior Championship most recently in 2023 and the National League in 2024. Derry has also won seven All-Ireland Minor titles and two All-Ireland Under-21 titles.
