Mayo entered the championship as defending champions.

On 27 September 1936, Louth won the championship following a 5-01 to 1-08 defeat of Kerry in the All-Ireland final. This was their first All-Ireland title. [1]

The victorious Louth team included several players from neighbouring counties who were boarding pupils at St. Mary's College, then the dominant side in Louth minor football. One of the boarders was captain Larry 'Lal' McEntee from Nobber, County Meath, whose nephew Dr. Gerry McEntee won the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship in both 1987 and 1988 with Meath.
