1969 Sligo Senior Football Championship

This is a round-up of the 1969 Sligo Senior Football Championship. Collooney/Ballisodare were champions again, and as in 1967 they defeated the holders, this time St. Patrick's, in the final. This was the seventh title won by the parish in the 1960s, but this was also to be the last such triumph to date.
