The 1973–74 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship was the fourth staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1970-71.
Nemo Rangers were the defending champions, however, they failed to qualify after being beaten by St. Finbarr's in the 1973 Cork County Championship.
On 28 April 1974, University College Dublin won the championship following a 0-14 to 1-04 defeat of Clan na Gael in the All-Ireland final replay at Croke Park.[1] It was their first ever championship title.
