Perspective

The 17 teams who competed in the 2024 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship but did not qualify for the round-robin group stages compete in the Tailteann Cup. Kildare enter the Tailteann Cup for the first time.

New York advance directly to the preliminary quarter-finals. The other 16 teams are drawn into four groups of four teams. Seeding is determined by placing in the 2024 National Football League (after promotion and relegation is applied and after division finals take place).[8]

Each team in a group plays the other teams in their group once; each team gets one home fixture, one away and one neutral. Teams are awarded two points for a win and one point for a draw.

The four preliminary quarter-finals will consist of the second-placed teams receiving home advantage against New York and the three third-placed teams with the best record. At the quarter-final stage the four group winners play the four preliminary quarter-final winners.

The semi-finals and final are played in Croke Park. All knock-out matches are winner on the day. The winner of the 2024 Tailteann Cup qualify for the group stage of 2025 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship regardless of their league position.
