The 1937 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final was the fiftieth All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1937 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.
The Radio Athlone commentator mistakenly announced Cavan as the winners of the first game; Packie Boylan's late point had been disallowed. Kerry won the replay by six points, with goals by Tim O'Leary (2), Miko Doyle and John Joe Landers. [1]
It was the fourth of five All-Ireland SFC titles won by Kerry in the 1930s. [2]
