The Kilkenny Intermediate Football Championship (currently also known for sponsorship reasons as the JJ Kavanagh & Sons Kilkenny Intermediate Football Championship) is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by the Kilkenny County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 1990, for the second-tier football teams in County Kilkenny, Ireland.
The series of games are played during the autumn and winter months with the county final currently being played in December. The championship has always been played on a straight knockout basis whereby once a team loses they are eliminated from the series.
The winning club in the Kilkenny IFC progresses to the Leinster Intermediate Club Football Championship, the winners of which compete for the All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship.
The title has been won at least once by seventeen different clubs. The all-time record-holders are Barrow Rangers, Piltown, Mullinavat, and Thomastown, who have all won the competition twice.
Conahy Shamrocks are the current (2017) title-holders after defeating Rower-Inistioge 1-08 to 0-08 in the final.
