2008–09 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship
The 2008–09 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship was the 39th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1970–71. The competition began on 19 October 2008 and concluded on 17 March 2009.
The defending champion was St Vincent's; however, the club lost to Kilmacud Crokes in the 2008 Dublin SFC semi-final replay. No representative clubs from Waterford or Wexford participated because of delays in the SFCs of those counties being completed.
Kilmacud Crokes defeated Crossmaglen Rangers by 1–9 to 0–7 in the [|final] at Croke Park on 17 March 2009 to win the competition. It was the club's second title, and a first since 1995.
