This season saw the formation of two new clubs in the senior grade. Last years finalists Bohermeen and Intermediate side Martry joined forces under the name Martry Harps. In February 1975, the 1974 I.F.C. champions St. John's Kilberry (who were only in existence for 2 years since forming in early 1973 from the Garryowen and Kilberry clubs) amalgamated with fellow Intermediate side Gibbstown to be known as the Wolfe Tones.
Summerhill were the defending champions after they defeated Bohermeen in the previous years final and they completed a 2 in a row of titles when beating Navan O'Mahonys 0-10 to 0-9 in the final in Pairc Tailteann on 5 October 1975. Donie Mooney raised the Keegan Cup for the 'Hill.
