The Junior E Championship was created at the start of the 2008 season and is open to clubs who only have one adult team taking part in the Adult Football Leagues.

This championship is played on a round robin format which gives each team three championship games a year.

Park Rangers won the First Junior E Final in 2008, defeating Wild Geese, who themselves would taste glory a year later in 2009.

In 2010 Rosmini Gaels won their first championship since winning the original Junior A championship in 1985. Two players from the '85 team played in the 2010 final. Rosmini Gaels repeated their victory in 2012.

The 2014 Junior E Final took place on September 20 between St. Kevin Killians and St Colmcilles of Swords in O'Toole Park. In a hard fought close game, St. Colmcilles came out on top to claim the first championship win in the history of the club and in the process going one step further than the previous year in which they finished up as runners-up.

AIB defeated Rosmini Gaels in the 2015 final after extra time to claim their first Junior E title.

In 2016 Ballymun outfit Starlights lifted the crown defeating Beann Eadair in the final.
