The trophy presented to the winners is the Paddy Cullen Cup. Paddy Cullen was a former Chairman of the Tyrone County Board from 1951-1969 (except 1960). A native of Co. Leitrim, Mr. Cullen came to Tyrone in 1946 as a teacher and he taught in St. Mary's Boys' School Cookstown as well as Slate Quarry and Rock Primary Schools. Omagh St. Enda's were the first winners of the newly presented Paddy Cullen cup in October 1977. The winners of the Tyrone Intermediate Football Championship qualify for the
Ulster Intermediate Club Football Championship, representing their county, later that year. Six clubs have gone on to Ulster glory after beating Tyrone:- Brackaville (1999), Pomeroy (2004, 2016), Trillick (2008), Cookstown (2009, 2012), Moy (2017) and Galbally (2022). The Ulster winners can then go on to compete in the
All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship. Cookstown (2010, 2013) and Moy (2018) have gone on to claim the All-Ireland after winning Ulster. The winners of the Tyrone Intermediate Football Championship also gain
promotion to Division 1 (from 1999 until 2007 Division 1B) of the Tyrone All-County Football league for the following season, regardless of their final standing in the Division 2 league that year. Therefore as the winners compete in the
Tyrone Senior Football Championship the following year, the holders do not defend their title. ==List of finals==
