Clare Senior Football Championship

The Clare Senior Football Championship is an annual Gaelic Athletic Association club competition between the top Gaelic football clubs in Clare. The winners of the Clare Championship winners qualify to represent their county in the Munster Senior Club Football Championship, the winners of which go on to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship. The Clare SFC final is generally held in the month of October and is played at Cusack Park in Ennis.

The current (2014) county champions and holders of the Jack Daly Cup are Cratloe who successfully defended their maiden title won in 2013. Having defeated Crusheen in the hurling final the previous weekend, they completed a historic first Clare Senior Championship 'Double' since Ennis Dalcassians in 1929.

Roll Of Honour

• Ennis Faughs were an amalgamation of Ennis Dalcassians / Éire Óg, Inis GAA and St Josephs Doora-Barefield GAA. They competed together from 1944-1956 and 1994-1996 when there were not enough players available for two separate senior football teams.
