The Irish Universities Football Union is the governing body for university association football in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.[1] It is responsible for organizing the Collingwood Cup, the major cup competition for Irish universities. It also manages the only two all Ireland association football leagues – the College & Universities Football League and the Women's Soccer Colleges Association of Ireland League.[2] It is affiliated to the Dublin–based Football Association of Ireland[3] and works closely with both the College Football Association of Ireland (CFAI) and the Belfast–based Irish Football Association. The IUFU also selects the teams that represent Ireland at the Summer Universiade.
