The tournament consists of 16 teams, with the winner going on to represent Meath in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage. Summerhill were the defending champions after they defeated Walterstown in the previous years final and they completed a 4 in a row of titles when beating Seneschalstown 3–7 to 2-7 after a replay in the final in Pairc Tailteann. Padraig Grey raised the Keegan Cup for the 'Hill. They also became the first Meath club to win a Leinster Senior Club Football Championship when they beat Dublin kingpins St. Vincent's in the final.
