The 2025 Kerry Club Football Championship (known as the Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Football Championship for sponsorship reasons) is due to be the 2025 edition of the Kerry Club Football Championship. The tournament is planned to consist of Kerry GAA's 9 senior club teams, an increase of one from 2024. Dr Crokes are defending champions after defeating reigning champions Dingle in the 2024 final.

Format

As the championship has increased from 8 teams to 9, a new format is planned for 2025. The 9 teams were drawn into three groups of three teams with each team playing the other two teams, one at home and one away. The two group winners with the best records will advance to the semi-finals while the other group winner and all three runners-up will advance to the quarter-finals. [2]

As the 2026 competition is also due to see an increase in the number of teams, there will be no relegation to the Intermediate Championship in 2025. [3]

Teams

Austin Stacks were promoted to the championship having won the 2024 Kerry Intermediate Football Championship. [4]
