The Cavan Senior Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by Cavan GAA. It is played between the fourteen intermediate-graded clubs in County Cavan. It was first competed for in 1915, before a lapse prior to being revived in 1966. The winners are awarded the Tommy Gilroy Cup and go on to represent Cavan in the Ulster Intermediate Club Football Championship. The winners are also promoted to the Cavan Senior Football Championship for the following year.
Five different clubs—Arva, Ballinagh, Cuchulainns, Lacken, and Templeport—have won the competition four times. Cuchulainns are the current champions after beating Butlersbridge in the 2025 final.
Format
[edit]14 teams contest the O'Reilly Precast Intermediate Football Championship. The championship is run on a league basis up to the quarter-final stage and knock-out thereafter.
