The Beara Junior Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by the Beara Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 1927 for junior Gaelic football teams in the Beara Peninsula in County Cork, Ireland.

The series of games begin in April, with the championship culminating with the final in the autumn. The championship includes a knock-out stage and a "back door" for teams defeated in the first round.

The Beara Junior Championship is an integral part of the wider Cork Junior Football Championship. The winners and runners-up of the Beara championship join their counterparts from the other seven divisions to contest the county championship.

Garnish are the title-holders after defeating Urhan by 0-13 to 0-9 in the 2017 championship final.[1]

gollark: Electron apps are basically just entire giant Chrome instances for one app. It's hilariously wasteful.
