The Leitrim Intermediate Football Championship is an annual football competition contested by mid-tier Leitrim GAA clubs. The Leitrim County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association has organised it since 1928.
Melvin Gaels are the title holders, who produced an miraculous comeback to overcome an eight point deficit in injury time to triumph over Allen Gaels (3-08) to (2-10) in the final held in Páirc Sheán Ui Heislin.
