The Ulster Senior Club Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football tournament played between the hundreds of senior football clubs in Ulster. There are nine county championships between the nine counties of Ulster. The nine winners go on to play each other in the Ulster Club Championship in a knock-out format. The winners go on to compete with the Connacht, Leinster, Munster and London champions in the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship. The current holders of the Ulster title are Crossmaglen Rangers from Armagh, who beat St Galls from Antrim in the 2007 final.
