The 2018 Dublin Senior Football Championship was the 132nd edition of Dublin GAA's premier gaelic football tournament for senior clubs in County Dublin, Ireland. 31 teams participate (16 in Senior A and 15 in Senior B), with the winner representing Dublin in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The draw for the group stages of the championship were made on 21 March 2018. [1]

No team was promoted from the 2017 I.F.C. due to the rule that no reserve side who wins the I.F.C. (in this case Na Fianna 'B') can be promoted to the S.F.C.

St. Vincent's were the defending champions having defeated Ballymun Kickhams in the previous year's final.

Team Changes

The following teams have changed division since the 2017 championship season.

Format Changes for 2018

In 2018 the Dublin S.F.C. moved away from the straight knock-out format used in previous years. The championship was split into two sections called the Senior A and Senior B Football Championships. Teams were graded as Senior A or B depending on their performances in the previous 5 Dublin S.F.C.'s. [2]

Senior 1 Football Championship

16 teams compete in 4 randomly drawn groups of 4. The top 2 teams in each group qualify for the S.A.F.C. Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the S.A.F.C. representing Dublin in the Leinster S.C.F.C. The bottom team in each of the four groups contest relegation play-offs with the eventual loser of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 S.B.F.C.

Senior 2 Football Championship

15 teams compete in 3 randomly drawn groups of 4 and 1 group of 3 (due to the withdrawal of U.C.D. from Dublin Championships).The top 2 teams in each group qualify for the S.B.F.C. Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the S.B.F.C. winning promotion to the 2019 Dublin S.A.F.C. The bottom teams in each group will contest a relegation play off with the eventual loser of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 I.F.C.

Intermediate Football Championship

All reserve sides who played in previous I.F.C.'s will now compete in a separate competition among themselves known as the "All-County Intermediate Football Championship" (A.C.I.F.C.). 16 teams compete in 4 randomly drawn groups of 4. The top 2 teams in each group qualify for the I.F.C. Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the I.F.C. winning promotion to the 2019 Dublin S.B.F.C. The bottom teams in each group will contest a relegation play off with the eventual loser of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 J.F.C.

Junior A Football Championship
