The 2011 Munster Senior Football Championship was that year's installment of the annual Munster Senior Football Championship held under the auspices of the Munster GAA. It was won by Kerry who defeated Cork in the final. This was Kerry's second consecutive appearance in the final and second consecutive title - they defeated Limerick in the 2010 final.[1][2][3]
