The 2019 Waterford Senior Football Championship is the 132nd edition of the Waterford GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded clubs in County Waterford, Ireland. The tournament consists of 12 teams, with the winner going on to represent Waterford in the Munster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.
The Nire were the defending champions after they defeated Kilrossanty in the previous years final. However the defence of their title came undone at the semi-final stage when losing to Ballinacourty.[1]
This was Kilmacthomas' return to the senior grade after claiming the 2018 Waterford I.F.C. title. This was their first year back in the top-flight of Waterford club football in 16 years since relegation at the end of the 2003 season.[2]
On 20 October 2019, Rathgormack claimed their 10th Waterford S.F.C. crown when defeating Ballinacourty by 2–6 to 1–6 in the final at Fraher Field.[3]
Portlaw were relegated to the 2020 I.F.C. after losing their Relegation Final to Brickey Rangers. This ended their three-year stay in the senior ranks.
