The 2025 Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship is the 121th staging of the Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship. [1]

Contents

A total of six teams contest the Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship. [2] All six teams enter the round-robin stage, playing each other once, guaranteeing at least five championship games. [3] The first round draws of games were streamed live via YouTube [4] on April 3, with the full schedule released on Facebook. [5]

Fr Daltons were promoted to the championship as last year's Senior B winners [6] [7] , replacing St Oliver Plunkett's GAA who were relegated last year. [8]

Castletown Geoghegan enter the championship as defending champions, defeating Lough Lene Gaels 1-27 - 2-17 last year's final. [9] [10] [11] Castlepollard. Clonkill, and Raharney round out the field.

Castlepollard were relegated to Senior B, assuring Fr Daltons became the first promoted Senior B team to avoid immediate relegation since its inception.

The final will be played in late October between defending champions Castletown Geoghegan [12] and the winner of the semi-final between Lough Lene Gaels and Raharney.
