Donegal Senior Football Championship
The Donegal Senior Football Club Championship or the RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta Donegal SFC is an annual GAA club competition between Donegal clubs operating at the highest level. The winners qualify to represent their county in the Ulster Senior Club Football Championship and in turn, go on to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship.
In recent years the final has been played at MacCumhail Park in Ballybofey. The most recent championship was won by St. Eunan's, who defeated Naomh Conaill in the 2012 final. The two teams have formed "one of the most modern of Donegal rivalries", having regularly been the two best sides in the county in recent times, i.e. since the turn of the century.
