The Leinster Senior League Cup is a major rugby competition in Ireland, involving all senior rugby clubs in Leinster, i.e. clubs from Leinster competing in the All-Ireland League. The teams are drawn into three groups and play each other once; and the winners of each group and the best runners-up qualify for the semi-finals.〔(Leinster Senior League Cup 2014/15 Section A )〕〔(Leinster Senior League Cup 2014/15 Play-offs )〕 Originally the Leinster Senior Cup, the competition has been competed for by the strongest clubs in the province of Leinster since 1882. In recent years it has declined in importance due to the introduction of the All-Ireland League and the formation of a professional provincial team to compete in the Heineken Cup. Following the demise of the Leinster Senior League some time around 2006〔(Leinster Senior League Cup 2006/07 )〕 the two competitions were combined as the Leinster Senior League Cup. From 1940-1947 Old Belvedere completed the still unrivalled feat of winning the cup 7 times in a row narrowly losing their 8th consecutive final to Wanderers. The winners compete with the other three provincial cup winners for the All-Ireland Cup. ==1880s== * 1882 Dublin University * 1883 Dublin University * 1884 Dublin University beat Lansdowne * 1885 Wanderers * 1886 Dublin University * 1887 Dublin University beat Wanderers * 1888 Wanderers beat Dublin University * 1889 Bective Rangers beat Wanderers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leinster Senior League Cup (rugby union)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
