The 2025 provincial senior football championship draws take place this Saturday, October 12.

The draws will be broadcast live on RTÉ Radio 1's Saturday Sport shortly after 4pm. The details are as follows:

Connacht

In 2025, Galway will travel to face New York at Gaelic Park in one quarter-final, while London host Roscommon at McGovern Park, Ruislip in another quarter-final.

There will be a draw for the other quarter-final fixture involving either Mayo, Sligo, or Leitrim.

The team that isn't drawn in the quarter-final will go straight into a semi-final, where there will be an open draw along with the three quarter-final winners.

Leinster

The four semi-finalists from the 2024 Leinster SFC - Dublin, Louth, Offaly, and Kildare are straight through to the quarter-final stage in 2025.

The remaining seven counties - Wicklow, Westmeath, Laois, Carlow, Longford, Wexford, and Meath will be placed in a bowl to get three first round pairings.

One of those seven teams won't be drawn and they will go into the quarter-final.

The three first round winners and the county that receives the bye will be drawn against the four teams, who reached last year's semi-finals in the last eight

Munster

The 2024 Munster finalists, Kerry and Clare, go straight through to the semi-final round in 2025.

Two quarter-final ties will be determined in a draw featuring Waterford, Cork, Limerick, and Tipperary, and there will be an open draw for the semi-finals between the Kerry, Clare and the two quarter-final winners.

Ulster

Armagh, Antrim, Monaghan, and Cavan have all played in preliminary round fixtures in 2023 and 2024 so they cannot be involved at that stage.

Two counties from Tyrone, Derry, Down, Donegal, and Fermanagh will feature in that game.

The winner of the preliminary round fixture will join the remaining seven counties in the quarter-final stage.
