Format
editThe format for the 2024 Championship will be different to the one used in recent years and will revert to a knock-out type competition. There will be a double-elimination format for the first two rounds and then a single-elimination format will be used for the rest of the championship. All sixteen teams will play in Round 1 with the 8 winners advancing to Round 2A where the eight teams will be drawn against each other with the four winners advancing to the quarter-finals. The 8 losers of Round 1 will advance to Round 2B where they will be drawn to play against each other. The four winners will advance to Round 3 where they will be drawn against the four losers from Round 2A. The four winners in Round 3 will then advance to the quarter-finals to play the Round 2A winners.[2][3]
Team changes
editMilltown/Castlemaine were promoted to the Kerry SFC for 2024 having won the 2023 Kerry Intermediate Football Championship.[4] They replaced Kerins O'Rahilly's who in turn were relegated to the Intermediate Championship for 2024 having lost the 2023 Kerry Club Football Championship Relegation play-off to Na Gaeil.[5]
