Report

The first ever Irish Softball Association Intervarsities were held in 2001. University College Cork won the single Leg tournament, after which it was dominated by University of Limerick and University College Dublin teams. For the first three years in was a single leg tournament with UCD winning in 2002 and UL in 2003. From then on it was played as a three-leg tournament over November, March and April of each College Year. UL won the overall title in 2003-04 and 2005-06, either side of a UCD triumph. In 2006-07 it was Limerick Ori Ginals, not strictly a College side, but who entered the Intervarsities along with Galway Tribes for the next five years. Other Universities entering included Trinity College Dublin in 2001 and in 2015-16 Sons of Pitches won a Tournament in Limerick involving RCSI, UCD, and a combined UCD/Limerick/Tullamore team.
