The divisions include clubs/teams from both the DDSL & SDFL leagues, embracing young players, age 7 to youth level within the Greater Dublin and surrounding areas.
Our goal is to strengthen the foundations of schoolboy football, affording the opportunities of providing a structured and progressive pathway in football for young players of all levels and abilities.
The Executive has cancelled the formation meeting scheduled for this coming Thursday January 24th 2019 - due to the large number of clubs that have not registered their teams yet.
