Leinster Towns Cup

Leinster Towns Cup

The Provincial Towns Cup is one of the oldest trophies in existence in Irish rugby union.

It was purchased in 1892 for £25 from Wests in Dublin. The cup bears the title of Leinster Junior Challenge Cup, but is not as old the competition itself, which was established in 1888.

In 1925, the Leinster branch of the Irish Rugby Football Union reorganized its junior competitions. The Leinster Junior Challenge Cup became the Provincial Towns Cup. This was now a knock-out competition for junior clubs from outside Dublin.
