The tournament consists of 12 teams, with the winners representing Waterford in the Munster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a seeded group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.

The Nire/Fourmilewater were the defending champions after they defeated Abbeyside/Ballinacourty in the 2016 final.

This was Portlaw's return to the senior grade.

Ballinameela were relegated to the 2018 I.F.C. after just two seasons as a senior club.
