The 1888 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship was unfinished owing to the American Invasion Tour, an unsuccessful attempt to raise funds for a revival of the Tailteann Games.[1]
The 1888 provincial championships had been completed (Tipperary, Kilkenny and Monaghan winning them; no Connacht teams entered) but after the Invasion tour returned, the All-Ireland semi-final and final were not played.[2]
Results
Leinster
Template:Footballbox Wicklow used illegal players, and the game was stopped by a pitch invasion with ten minutes to go, so a replay was ordered.
Munster
Template:Footballbox Limerick were awarded the game due to Clare playing illegal players.
Ulster
Template:Footballbox Neither team could field the full 21 players, so 15-a-side was agreed.
Statistics
Sligo and Mayo played a draw in the Connacht final. There is no record of a replay.
Miscellaneous
No All-Ireland series due to US tour.
