The 2023 Tailteann Cup was the second edition of the Tailteann Cup and is the second-tier of Gaelic football for senior county teams (the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship is the first-tier trophy). It was contested by seventeen teams who failed to reach their provincial final including New York. These teams initially competed in their provincial championship and if they reached their provincial final, they continued in the 2023 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, progressing to the All-Ireland group stage. [1] [2] [3]

The final was played on 15 July 2023 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Meath and Down. Meath won after defeating Down 2–13 to 0–14. [4]

Format

Cup format

The 17 teams who competed in the 2023 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship but did not qualify for the round-robin group stages compete in the Tailteann Cup. Limerick and Meath enter the Tailteann Cup for the first time.

New York advance directly to the preliminary quarter-finals. The other 16 teams are drawn into four groups of four teams. Seeding is determined by placing in the 2023 National Football League (after promotion and relegation is applied and after division finals take place).

The Group Stage is divided into four groups of four teams, with each team in a group playing the other teams in their group once; each team gets one home fixture, one away and one neutral. Teams are awarded two points for a win and one point for a draw.

The four preliminary quarter-finals will consist of the second-placed teams receiving home advantage against New York and the three third-placed teams with the best record. At the quarter-final stage the four group winners play the four preliminary quarter-final winners.

The semi-finals and final are played in Croke Park. All knock-out matches are winner on the day. The winner of the 2023 Tailteann Cup qualify for the group stage of 2024 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship regardless of their league position.
