The 1950 Cork Senior Football Championship was the 62nd staging of the Cork Senior Football Championship since its establishment by the Cork County Board in 1887. The draw for the opening round fixtures took place on 29 January 1950. The championship ran from 16 April to 18 October 1950.

Collins entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they were beaten by St Nicholas' in a quarter-final replay.

On 8 October 1950, Garda won the championship following a 3–07 to 2–05 defeat of St. Nicholas' in the final at the Cork Athletic Grounds.[1] This remains their only championship title.
