1989 Meath Senior Football Championship


The 1989 Meath Senior Football Championship is the 97th edition of the Meath GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Meath, Ireland. The tournament consists of 13 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.
This was St. Colmcille's first year ever as a senior club after claiming the 1988 Meath Intermediate Football Championship title.
Navan O'Mahonys were the defending champions after they defeated Walterstown in the previous years final, and they successfully defended their title to claim their 14th S.F.C. title when beating Skryne 0-17 to 3-6 in the final at Pairc Tailteann on 1 October 1989. Finian Murtagh raised the Keegan Cup for O'Mahonys while Colm O'Rourke of Skryne claimed the 'Man of the Match' award, becoming the first man to claim this accolade after losing the final.
No team was relegated from the S.F.C. this year.
