Traditionally, the four provincial championship winners face each other at the All-Ireland semi-final stage.

As the Ulster GAA council did not hold a provincial championship, the fourth semi-final spot was therefore taken by Lancashire, as winners of the 2010 All-Britain Junior Football Championship.

The victory of Sligo, in the final against Kerry, was the county's second in the history of the All-Ireland Junior Football Championship and its first since 1935.[1]
