The Mayo Senior Hurling Championship is an annual hurling competition contested since 1923 by the top Mayo GAA clubs.
In its current format, the Mayo Senior Championship begins in mid-summer. The 4 participating teams play each other in a round-robin system. The group winner and the runners-up proceed to the final match. The other two teams play the Senior B final. The winner of the Mayo Senior Championship qualifies for the Connacht Intermediate Club Hurling Championship.
Tooreen are the title holders, defeating Ballyhaunis by 2-17 to 0–21 in the 2025 final.
