The 1987 Mongolian National Championship was the twenty-third recorded edition of the Mongolian National Championship for football, with the first tournament taking place in 1955 and no tournament held in 1965 or apparently in 1977.[1] It would appear however that championships were contested between 1956 and 1963, as sources note that a team called Aldar, the Mongolian Army Sports Club, won the title on numerous occasions during that time.[1] Nonetheless, the 1985 national championship was won for the first time[1] by Sükhbaatar, a team representing Sükhbaatar District, one of nine Düüregs (districts) of the capital Ulaanbaatar.[2] Strength, a team representing the Public Security Sports Association, finished as runners up, whilst a team representing October District in Ulaanbaatar finished in third place.[2]
