The 2011 O'Byrne Cup was a Gaelic football competition played by the teams of Leinster GAA. The competition differs from the Leinster Senior Football Championship as it also features further education colleges and the winning team does not progress to another tournament at All-Ireland level. The holders of the O'Byrne Cup were DCU. This edition of the O'Byrne Cup began on 9 January 2011.
