The 2025 Ulster Senior Club Football Championship is the 57th instalment of the annual competition organised by Ulster GAA. It is one of the four provincial competitions of the 2025–26 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship and is played in a straight knockout format.
Tyrone's Errigal Ciarán were the 2024 champions,[1] but lost the Tyrone semi-final and were unable to defend their title.[2]
The semi-final match between Scotstown and Newbridge was originally scheduled for 23 November at O'Neills Healy Park in Omagh. The match was abandoned at half-time due to weather conditions with Scotstown four points ahead.[3] The match was rescheduled for the following week at the Box-It Athletic Grounds in Armagh.[4]
The Ulster championship is contested by the winners of the nine county championships in the Irish province of Ulster. Ulster comprises the six counties of Northern Ireland, as well as Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan in the Republic of Ireland.
