1937–38 National Football League (Ireland)

The 1937–38 National Football League was the 11th staging of the National Football League (NFL), an annual Gaelic football tournament for the Gaelic Athletic Association county teams of Ireland.

Mayo won the league for the fifth year in a row, beating Meath in the final. This season was notable for featuring the first commentary by Mícheál Ó hEithir, who, along with four others, did a test commentary on Dublin v. Louth in May 1938. Dr Kiernan was so impressed by Ó hEithir's performance that he allowed him to commentate on the entire second half. ɗ
