The Ulster Intermediate Club Football Championship, known for sponsorship reasons as the AIB Ulster Intermediate Club Football Championship and shortened to Ulster Club IFC, is an annual Gaelic football competition organised by Ulster GAA. It is played between the Intermediate championship winners from each of the nine counties of Ulster. The competition has a straight knock-out format. It was first held in 1998 as an unofficial tournament, and was first organised by Ulster GAA in 2004. The winners are awarded the Patrick McCully Cup, named in honour of Clontibret O'Neills stalwart Packie McCully. The winners go on to represent Ulster in the All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship.
Tyrone clubs have won the competition eight times, more than any other county. Craigbane, Pomeroy and Cookstown Fr. Rock's are the only clubs to have won the competition twice. The current champions are Glenullin from Derry.
