The 2014 All-Ireland Minor Football Championship is the premier "knockout" competition for under-18 competitors who play the game of Gaelic football in Ireland. The games are organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association. The 2014 series of games started in May with the majority of the games played during the summer months. The All-Ireland Minor Football Final took place on 21 September in Croke Park, Dublin, preceding the Senior Game. In 2014 the title sponsor was Electric Ireland.
In the final, Kerry defeated Donegal by 0-17 to 1-10 to win their first minor title since 1994. [1] [2] [3]
Numerous players who started for the finalists, Donegal and Kerry, were involved for their counties in the 2025 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final, including, for Donegal, Eoghan Bán Gallagher and Caolan McGonagle, two of the players named to start in 2025, while 2025 substitutes Jamie Brennan and Stephen McMenamin began the 2014 minor decider as well.
