History
Armagh has a long tradition of football stretching back to the 19th century when they became only the second team to win the Ulster SFC in 1890. Despite early success at provincial level, national success at junior and minor level and All-Ireland final appearances in 1953 and 1977, it took until 2002 for Armagh to win their first
All-Ireland Senior Football Championship. The following year saw the Orchard County almost become the first team for more than a decade to retain the Sam Maguire cup but they were narrowly beaten in a tense final with their fellow northern rivals
Tyrone. Since then the county has netted a further three Ulster championships and won their first ever National Football League title
