Welcome to Dublin University AFC
Join Our Team: Founded in 1883, Dublin University AFC is Ireland's oldest football club, renowned for its rich history of success and tradition. Notable recent achievements include winning the Harding Cup in 2018—for the first time since 1997—and the Farquhar Cup in 2020. We were also finalists in the CUFL Premier Division, the Collingwood cup, and the Farquhar Cup in 2024 and we hope to continue to build on this success.
Club Structure: The club operates four different teams:
1. The Sunday Senior Leinster Senior League (LSL) team who play in the Sunday 1a league.
2. The Saturday LSL team who play in the Saturday Major 1C league.
3. The CUFL Premier division University team (largely consists of players from the LSL 1a team and some high quality players who do not play for the LSL team)
4. The CUFL “B”/freshers team, which play in the CUFL league and also the Harding Cup which is a tournament specifically for first year college students.
Participation and Training: We invite all who are interested in football to join our club. These sessions are great for developing skills, staying fit, and forming new friendships.
