Dublin Senior Hurling Championship
The Dublin GAA Senior Hurling Championship (Irish: Craobh Sinsear Iomána Átha Cliath) is an annual hurling competition for top hurling clubs that has been organised by the County Board of Dublin GAA since 1887. The winners of the competition qualify to represent their GAA county in the Leinster GAA Senior Club Hurling Championship and, if successful, go on to compete in the All-Ireland Championship. Over the years, non-traditional clubs have been allowed to compete in the Dublin Championship such as regional teams and third-level club, UCD, who have won the competition on several occasions. In its inaugural year, the competition was won by the Metropolitan Hurling Club.
The 2011 tournament was won by Ballyboden St Endas who beat O'Tooles in the final by 3-12 to 0-09.

Famous quotes containing the word senior:
“Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
