County Championships
Ireland's 32 counties play their county championships between their senior gaelic football clubs. Each county decides the format for determining their county champions. The format can be straight knockout, double-elimination, a league or a combination.
Provincial Championships
Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster each organise a provincial championship for their participating county champions. All matches are knock-out and two ten minute periods of extra time are played if it's a draw at the end of normal time.
All-Ireland
The winners of the London club championship play one of the four provincial champions in a single match in mid-December. The match is usually played in London and is referred to as a quarter-final. Two semi-finals are usually played on a Saturday in mid-February. The All-Ireland final is traditionally played in Croke Park on St. Patrick's Day, the 17th of March.
