The 2022–23 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship was the 52nd staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county club Gaelic football tournament. The draws for the respective provincial championships took place at various stages between June and September 2022.[1] [2] The championship ran from 22 October 2022 to 22 January 2023.

Kilcoo entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they were beaten by Glen in the Ulster final.[3] [4] [5]

Kilmacud Crokes won the championship, defeating Glen by 1-11 to 1-09 in the All-Ireland final at Croke Park.[6] [7]

Kilmacud Crokes finished the game with an extra player on the pitch, causing significant controversy.[8] The GAA ordered a replay of the final after Glen lodged an objection.[9] However after Kilmacud Crokes lodged an appeal against a replay, Glen withdrew from the appeals process, saying that they "do not believe the conditions exist for a replay", resulting in Kilmacud retaining their title.[10] [11]
