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 1 and Senior 2 Football Championships. Teams were graded as Senior 1 or 2 depending on their performances in the previous five 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.1.F.C. Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the S.1.F.C. representing Dublin in the Leinster S.C.F.C. The bottom teams in each of the four groups contest the relegation play-offs with the losers of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 S.2.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 the Dublin Championships). The top 2 teams in each group qualify for the S.2.F.C. Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the S.2.F.C. winning promotion to the 2019 Dublin S.1.F.C. The bottom teams in each of the four groups contest the relegation play-offs with the losers of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 I.F.C.

Quarter-Finals, with the outright winner of the I.F.C. winning promotion to the 2019 Dublin S.2.F.C. The bottom teams in each of the four groups contest the relegation play-offs with the losers of the relegation final being relegated to the 2019 Junior Football 1 Championship.

gollark: You forgot strange kek, charm kek, up kek and down kek!
gollark: What if we make it so that proposals are *automatically* passed when the rules state they should be, and directly patch the code of the bot?
gollark: What if we make it so that votes are done by allowing each player to set a few cells of the initial state to a complex cellular automaton, and then the output of that after a few billion steps is parsed into the result of the vote?
gollark: Wait, what if we treat passing/failing proposals as a 1D cellular automaton?
gollark: Oh, and also, pass proposal but translated to Latin, pass proposal 3 days ago, pass proposal *in* 6 days, and randomly reassign all rule numbers.
