The New York county football team represents the New York metropolitan area in men's Gaelic football and is governed by New York GAA, the County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association. The team competes in three of the four major annual inter-county competitions; the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, Tailteann Cup and the Connacht Senior Football Championship; it does not currently compete in the National Football League.
New York's home ground is Gaelic Park, New York City. The team's manager is Johnny McGeeney.
New York last won the National League in 1967 and has never won the All-Ireland Senior Championship.
In the 2022 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship Semi-Final, New York beat Warwickshire on a score of 1-8 to 0-6 in Abbotstown, which marked their first win on Irish soil.
New York played in Croke Park for the first time ever in the 2022 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship Final, but lost to Kilkenny on a score of 3-11 to 1-9. But the following year, they got their revenge by beating Kilkenny in the 2023 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship final on a score of 0-13 to 1-9. This also marked New York's first trophy win in Ireland and their first trophy in 56 years.
New York won their first Connacht Senior Football Championship match in 2023, beating Leitrim on penalties after drawing the match 0-15 to 0-15 after extra time.[1]
