The 2024–25 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship is scheduled to be the 54th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county club Gaelic football tournament. The draws for the respective provincial championships took place at various stages.[1][2][3] The championship is scheduled to run from October 2024 to January 2025.

Defending champions from 2023-24, Watty Graham's GAC, Glen were defeated in the final of the Derry championship.[4][5]

Format

[edit]

Each Irish county plays a county championship, with one club progressing to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship. In this, each province plays their own championship (all being straight knockout) with the four provincial champions qualifying for the All-Ireland semi-finals.

The Kilkenny champions do not compete in Leinster, instead playing in the 2024–25 All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship, while the London champions compete in the Connacht championship.
