Report

The Irish Baseball and Softball Association Championship became the IBSA Cup Championship in 1995, and in 1997 was again renamed the IBSA 6:4 Cup (after the number of Males:Females in the teams). From 1997 to 1998 it was won by Oddsox Red, and the following year in 1999 it became the IBSF Cup with the renaming of the Federation. In 2002 another renaming of the association saw it become the ISA Cup and then in 2004 the Softball Ireland Cup.

Dodder Dynamoes won it every second year from 1999 to 2006 inclusive, and in the intervening years the Champions were Los Banditos (2000), Oddsox Green (2002), and BatPak (2005 and 2007). in 2008 the SI Cup was renamed the Brian Walshe Cup after a former National Team and Oddsox pitcher who died tragically young.
