History

The first Dublin Football Championship took place in 1887, Erins Hope were the first Dublin Champions. St Vincents have won the most titles (24). Ballyboden St. Enda's are the current Dublin Senior Football Champions.[1]

There were no champions in 1902 as there was no Dublin Football Championship that year. The 1902 final was played in 1903, with Bray Emmetts going on to represent Dublin and win the 1902 Leinster and All-Ireland Senior Football Championship representing Dublin (Six Bray Emmetts Players in all), a final which was played in 1904.[2]

The Dublin senior football championship had received a dramatic revamp for 2006. A backdoor system was introduced and the new system was on a two-year trial which ended in 2007. A whole new system was introduced for the 2008 competition, the teams were divided into groups which were based on seeding from the previous year.[3] The new system was to only involve the senior football championship. The backdoor system was restored for 2009 and has since remained with this structure.
