Knock-out stage

Quarter-finals

Gaoth Dobhair and Naomh Conaill, the last two clubs to win the competition, were paired with each other in the quarter-final draw. Seán MacCumhaills and Kilcar met in the other quarter-final on that side of the draw. On the other side of the draw St Eunan's and St Naul's played each other in one quarter-final, while St Michael's and Aodh Ruadh played each other in the other quarter-final.

Semi-finals

The semi-final meeting of Kilcar and Naomh Conaill was shown live to a national audience on TG4. Naomh Conaill won, after a late Patrick McBrearty goal that would have brought the sides level, was ruled out.

Final

It was Naomh Conaill's fifth consecutive appearance in the final. The game was televised live on TG4. A minute's silence was held before the game in memory of Martin Griffin, whose sudden death occurred the previous day. St Eunan's won.

Relegation play-offs

Eight clubs (Glenfin, Glenswilly, Réalt na Mara, Ard an Rátha, Milford, Na Cealla Beaga, Termon and Four Masters) entered the draw for the relegation play-offs once the quarter-final line-up was confirmed.

Ulster Senior Club Football Championship

St Eunan's advanced to the 2021 Ulster Senior Club Football Championship.

Watty Graham's knocked St Eunan's out of that competition with an injury time point from Danny Tallon winning the game at O'Donnell Park, despite St Eunan's scoring the only goal and leading for much of the game and Shaun Patton saving a penalty.
