The 2016 Tyrone Senior Football Championship is the 111th edition of Tyrone GAA's premier gaelic football tournament for senior clubs in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. Sixteen teams compete with the winners receiving the O'Neill Cup and representing Tyrone in the Ulster Senior Club Football Championship.

Trillick were the defending champions after they defeated Killyclogher St. Mary's in the 2015 final.

Edendork St. Malachy's, Galbally Pearse's and Kildress Wolfe Tones returned to senior championship football in 2016.

On 21 October 2016, Killyclogher St. Mary's claimed their 2nd S.F.C. title when defeating Coalisland Fianna in a final replay in Healy Park on a 0-20 to 0-6 scoreline.

Kildress Wolfe Tones made the straight drop back down to the Intermediate ranks when finishing bottom of the 2016 S.F.L. They were followed by Augher lost their S.F.L. Relegation Playoff to Eglish St. Patrick's.

Format

The championship has a straight knock out structure. The 16 teams that take part in the championship are the 16 teams in the Senior Football League (SFL).

Relegation from SFC

Either two or three teams are relegated each year from the SFC and SFL. The 16th placed team in the SFL is automatically relegated to the IFL. The 15th and 14th placed teams then play a SFL relegation playoff with the loser being relegated. The winner plays the winner of the IFL promotion playoffs - if they win, they remain in the SFC and SFL - if they lose they are relegated to the IFC and IFL. (The winner of the SFC can't be relegated. If the championship winner finishes in the bottom 3 in the league, the 13th placed team enters the relegation scenario.)

Promotion to SFC

Either two or three teams are promoted to the SFC each year. The IFC champions and the IFL champions are automatically promoted to the senior grade (If a team wins the IFC and IFL, the 2nd placed team in the IFL are automatically promoted). 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th place in the IFL enter the IFL promotion semi-finals (If the IFC champions are placed in the top 5 the 6th placed team enter the IFL promotion semi-finals) with the eventual winner of the final earning the right to play the loser of the SFL relegation playoff in a relegation/promotion playoff.

Relegated from SFC to IFC in 2015
