The Gaelic Athletic Association was founded in November 1884. The first All-Ireland Championships were the 1887 Championships. The football final wasn't actually played until the 26th of April in 1888. It was not unusual at the time for championships of a particular year not being completed until another year, even more than a year later. The final of the 1887 championship was played in Clonskeagh in Dublin, just outside the city.
Until the 1923 championship clubs represented counties, similar to the All-Ireland Club Championships nowadays. However, finals won prior to 1923 were still credited to the county the club came from. The 1887 final was won by Commercials representing Limerick. They beat Young Irelands who represented Louth. The final score was 1 - 4 to 0 - 3. The scoring system was different then with a goal exceeding any amount of points, rather than being fixed at 3 points as it is today.
Dublin won the All-Ireland Football Final, beating Tyrone and Clare won the All-Ireland Hurling Final, beating Offaly.
