1986 Meath Intermediate Football Championship
The 1986 Meath Intermediate Football Championship is the 60th edition of the Meath GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for intermediate graded teams in County Meath, Ireland. The tournament consists of 18 teams. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.
This was Ballinabrackey's return to the grade after a four-year absence as they were promoted from the J.F.C. after claiming the 1985 Meath Junior Football Championship title.
On 19 October 1986, Gaeil Colmcille marked their 20th anniversary with their 1st Intermediate championship title since being formed from the Drumbaragh Emmets and Kells Harps clubs in 1966, when they defeated Meath Hill 1-6 to 0-7 in the final at Kells. This ended their two-year absence from the S.F.C.
