The competition format saw the four provincial champions compete in two 'Home' semi-finals, the winners of which then contested the All-Ireland 'Home' final.

In the last stage of the competition, the victorious 'Home' finalists then met the champions of Britain to determine who would be crowned overall All-Ireland Junior Football Champions for 1932.

The title match at the Drogheda Gaelic Grounds concluded with Louth defeating London, the representatives of Britain, on a scoreline of 0–06 to 0–04. This was Louth's second triumph in the competition, following on from the county's initial success in 1925.
