The 2019 Meath Intermediate Football Championship is the 93rd 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, with the winner going on to represent Meath in the Leinster Intermediate Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.

Longwood (who in 2019 will compete at senior level) were the previous years champions after they defeated Ballinlough in the 2018 decider. [1]

Blackhall Gaels return to the I.F.C. for the first time since 2001, after suffering relegation from the S.F.C. in 2018. Their 17 year tenure in the top-flight brought a Keegan Cup triumph to the club in 2003. [2]

St. Peter's Dunboyne 'B's were promoted to the middle grade after claiming the J.F.C. crown in 2018 with an extra-time final victory over St. Vincent's. This is the first time that a reserve side from the club has been ranked in the I.F.C. They now join Donaghmore/Ashbourne 'B's as the two clubs with reserve sides in the I.F.C. [3]

On 26 October 2019, Nobber claimed their third I.F.C. title and secured their return to senior ranks for the first time since 2013 when defeating Trim 4-16 to 0-13 in the final at Pairc Tailteann. Brian Farrell and Brendan Heffernan raised the Mattie McDonnell Cup as joint-captains while Thomas Murtagh claimed the "Man-of-the-Match" award for his performance. [4]

The draw for the group stages of the championship were made on 4 March 2019 with the games commencing on 4 April 2019. [5]
