  • The Munster Schools Senior Cup or Munster Senior Cup is the under-age rugby union competition for schools affiliated to the Munster Branch of the IRFU. The inaugural Munster Schools Senior Cup took place in 1909 and, since then, Cork city's two all-boys schools have been to the fore, as the only rugby playing schools in the city. Christian Brothers College have 31 titles, whilst Presentation Brothers College have 30. Rockwell College (26) were once the team to beat in the competition, holding the record of most wins until the 1980s. However, Rockwell have only won the cup five times since. Limerick's dominant club scene, smaller population and larger number of competing schools has led to more modest achievements. Limerick CBS (4) won Limerick's first trophies in the 1920s and 1930s, followed by Crescent College (11) which contributed three in the 1940s and 50s whilst St. Munchin's (5) added their first in 1968. Mungret College, merged into Crescent College in 1974, took the trophy once in 1941. In addition Ardscoil Rís, and St. Enda's have all competed in finals. The most recent winners are Crescent College Comprehensive who overcame a strong PBC team 26-5. The competition's final generally takes place every year on St. Patrick's day and alternates between being played in Thomond Park or Musgrave Park — unless there are two teams from one city playing, in which case the game takes place in that city.
