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.
