The 2016 Cavan Senior Football Championship was the 108th edition of Cavan GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Cavan, Ireland. The tournament consists of 16 teams, with the winner going on to represent Cavan in the Ulster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage. The draw for the group stages of the championship were made on 11 April 2016.[1]

Kingscourt Stars were the defending champions,[2] but were dethroned by Ramor United at the quarter-final stage.[3]

The final was played on 9 October 2016, but the game ended in a draw.[4] On 23 October 2016, Ramor United claimed their fourth title, beating Castlerahan after a replay and thus bridging a 24-year gap since their last triumph.[5][6]

Format

[edit | edit source]

For the 2016 season the championship will take a Group stage progressing to a knock-out stage format rather than the back-door system used in previous years. The 16 clubs will be divided into 4 groups of 4 with 2 teams in each group to be seeded. The top 2 in each group progress to the quarter-finals while the bottom placed team in each group enter a Relegation Playoff with 3 teams to be relegated to the 2017 Intermediate Championship. This will leave 14 clubs to participate in the 2017 Senior Championship.

Team changes

The following teams have changed division since the 2015 championship season.
