Donaghmore, St. Peter's Dunboyne and Syddan were regraded from the 1962 S.F.C. Although the St. Peter's Dunboyne 'B' team claimed the 1962 J.F.C. they chose not to enter two teams into the middle grade, and so their second string remained in J.F.C. Southern Division. The Rathkenny club reformed this year and entered Meath GAA competitions for the first time since the 1951 J.F.C. Many of their players joined from the neighbouring Slane and Syddan 1962 squads.

At the end of the season Dunderry applied to be regraded to the 1964 J.F.C. surviving just one year in the middle tier.

On 8 September 1963, St. Patrick's claimed their 1st Intermediate championship title when they defeated Kells Harps 1-6 to 1-3 in the final at Pairc Tailteann.
