The series of games are organised by Ladies' Gaelic Football Association (Irish :Cumann Peil Gael na mBan) and are played during the early summer months with the All-Ireland Final being played in late July or early August.

Competition format

Counties are divided into two groups and participate in a round robin series of games. The top two teams play in a knockout semi-final before the winners of each game proceed to the final.

The winners of the competition are promoted to the Intermediate Championship in the next season and are replaced by a team relegated from that tier. Unlike the men's Championship, the counties' Ladies' National Football League does not have any bearing in which championship tier they compete.

Roll of honour

The current holders are Down who won their second title after beating Limerick in the 2023 decider. This was Down's first year back in the Junior Championship having been relegated in 2022. They will compete in the Intermediate Championship in 2024.
