History
The first tournament was held in 1904 and Coalisland won that by defeating Killyclogher in the final. [2]
The trophy given to the winning club was renamed as the Pat D'Arcy Cup in 2018.
From 2018, all championship games have been streamed live on Tyrone TV.
Honours
The trophy presented to the winners is the Pat D'Arcy Cup.
The winners of the Tyrone Junior Football Championship qualify to represent their county in the Ulster Junior Club Football Championship. They often do well there, winning It on numerous occasions.[3] The winners can, in turn, go on to play in the All-Ireland Junior Club Football Championship.
The winners also gain promotion to Division 2 of the Tyrone All-County Football league for the following season, regardless of their final standing in the Division 3 league that year. Therefore as the winners compete in the Tyrone Intermediate Football Championship the following year, the holders do not defend their title.

Tattyreagh's remarkable rise from Junior to Senior in the space of a year has won the hearts of GAA followers throughout Tyrone and beyond. Division One football will be played at Pairc Ui Dhorchai for the first time ever in 2019, when one of the smallest clubs in the county will mix it with giants of the game such as Coalisland, Killyclogher, Errigal Ciaran, Omagh and Dromore. The dream became a reality as they clinched back to back championship titles at Healy Park on Sunday, winning the LCC Tyrone IFC title, just 12 months after being crowned JFC champions.
