[QUOTE="eoino, post: 113259"] Whats the Set Up like in different Countries? The irish set up is extreamly intence, TV and Newspaper coverage, attracts a packed national Stadium for the semi's and the Final, and has been run since the 1800s.. Leinster Schools Senior Cup to give it its full name is the under-age rugby union competition for schools affiliated to the Leinster Branch of the IRFU. First held in 1887, the cup celebrated its 120th anniversary in 2007. It traditionally draws large crowds to matches and up to 25,000 for the final tie which traditionally takes place on Saint Patrick's Day at Lansdowne Road. Historically Blackrock College is by far the most successful team in the cup's history having lifted the cup 65 times, followed by Terenure College with 10 Wins, Belvedere College with 9 Wins, Castleknock College, with 8 Wins, Clongowes Wood College with 6 Wins and St. Mary's College with 5 Wins.
