The All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by the GAA. It is played between the Intermediate championship winners from each of the thirty-two counties of Ireland. Each team competes in their own provincial championship, with the four provincial winners competing in the All-Ireland. The competition has a straight knock-out format. It was first held in 2004 as an unofficial tournament, and has been an official GAA championship since the 2004–05 edition.

Kerry clubs have had the most success, winning the competition seven times. Cookstown Fr. Rock's and Ardfert have both won the competition twice. The current champions are St Patrick's, Cullyhanna from Armagh.
