The 2022 All-Ireland Senior Ladies' Football Championship was the 49th edition of the Ladies' Gaelic Football Association's premier inter-county ladies' Gaelic Football tournament. It took place in summer 2022 in Ireland.[1] retained the title they won in 2021.
The 13 teams first play in their provincial championships; Connacht (2 teams), Munster (4 teams) and Ulster (4 teams) each organise their provincial championship as a straight knockout.
In Leinster there are three teams in the provincial championship. They play each other in a round-robin phase, with two teams progressing to the final.
The 13 teams are drawn into one group of four teams and three groups of three teams; seeding is based on performance in the provincial championships. Each team plays each other team in its group once, earning three points for a win and one for a draw.
The last-placed teams in the groups played off to decide which two teams were relegated to the All-Ireland Intermediate Ladies' Football Championship.
The top two in each group progress to the All-Ireland quarter-finals. Quarter-finals and semi-finals are "results on the day," with 20 minutes' extra time being played in the event of a draw, and a free-kick shootout being taken from a distance in the event of a draw after extra time.[2] If the All-Ireland final is a draw, the game is replayed.[1]
Group games take place 11–25 June 2022.
