The 1971 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship final was a hurling match played at St. Brendan's Park on 19 December 1971 to determine the winners of the 1970–71 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, the first season of the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, a tournament organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association for the champion clubs of the four provinces of Ireland.
St. Rynagh's had a very slow start and were held scoreless against the wind for 29 minutes.
Roscrea were regarded as the fitter side with Francis Loughnane leading a set of forwards who could not be held.
Roscrea's half-back line also came in for praise in nullifying the St. Rynagh's attack.
They remain a team who has contested All-Ireland deciders but has never claimed the ultimate prize.
