Irish Senior Cup (men's hockey)

The logo of the Irish Hockey Association.

The Irish Senior Cup is the premier knock-out trophy played for by the best men's hockey clubs in Ireland. It is one of the oldest hockey tournaments in the world.

Historical format

From its start in 1894 until 1977, the tournament was played in three regional tournaments. The winners of the regional tournaments in Leinster, Munster and Ulster would proceed through to one semi-final match. The winner of the semi-final would play the remaining side in the final. The finals were played in one weekend until the mid-1930s. It was then decided to play the final on a separate weekend, as the winning team from the semi-final match was at a disadvantage. It was not unknown for several periods of extra time to be played in the semi-final and then the final had to be played within 24 hours.

Current format

In 1978, it was decided to change the format to an open draw. This allowed for new rivalries and friendships to form between hockey clubs throughout the entire island of Ireland.

The final is played in Dublin and is normally broadcast by the Irish national television broadcaster RTÉ.
