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:
“I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
