The Limerick Senior Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football competition contested by the top Limerick GAA clubs. The champions qualify to represent Limerick in the Munster Senior Club Football Championship, the winners of which progress to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship.
The series of games are played during the summer and autumn months with the county final currently being played at the Gaelic Grounds in October. The prize for the winning team is the Fr. Casey Cup. Initially played as a knock-out competition, the championship currently uses a round robin format followed by a knock-out stage.
The Limerick County Championship is an integral part of the wider Munster Senior Club Football Championship. The winners of the Limerick County final join the champions of the other Munster football counties to contest the provincial championship.
Twelve teams currently participate in the Limerick County Championship. The all-time record-holders are Commercials, who have won a total of 16 titles.
