Irish Senior Cup (cricket)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bob Kerr Irish Senior Cup, known for sponsorship reasons as the RSA Bob Kerr Irish Senior Cup is a 50-over cricket competition for Irish amateur clubs. It is the most important knock-out cricket club competition in Ireland, is organised by Cricket Ireland and comprises the top teams from each of Ireland's four active provincial unions (Leinster, Munster, NCU and North West). Connacht Cricket Union, the youngest, smallest and weakest provincial union, do not enter teams in their own right, but County Galway CC enters as a member club in Munster.

Sponsorship

It was sponsored initially by Schweppes and then Royal Liver,[1] and the current sponsor is RSA. It was renamed in honour of Bob Kerr, who died at the 2007 Cricket World Cup.[2][3]

Matches are of 50-overs duration, though this may be reduced to as few as ten overs per side where delays or interruptions necessitate.[4]

Each team must contain not less than nine players fully eligible to play for Ireland in all competitions.[4]

Waringstown are the most successful club in the competition with 6 wins. Leinster Cricket Club are the defending champions, having defeated Waringstown by 48 runs in the 2023 final.[5]
