History Lavey won the Cavan Junior Football Championship for the very first time in 1950, but the final wasn't played until 1951. Later the same year, the club won the Cavan Senior Football Championship for the only time in the club's history.
The club won the Cavan Intermediate Football Championship for the first time in 2009, beating Cootehill in the final. Their year didn't end there, and wins over Kinawley in the quarter-final and Fanad Gaels in the semi-final sent Lavey into the final of the Ulster Intermediate Club Football Championship. Lavey lost the final by two points to Cookstown Fr. Rock's.
