Hogan Cup

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hogan Cup (1946-48 & 1957-) is the cup presented to the winners of the colleges All-Ireland "A" senior football championship, the top level Gaelic football championship for secondary schools in Ireland. St. Jarlath's College, Tuam hold the record number of titles, winning their twelfth in 2002.

Inaugurated in 1946, this cup is named after Brother Thomas Hogan.(The Hogan Stand in Croke Park is named after his brother Michael Hogan). Since its beginning, there have been two different cups presented, the original cup was last presented in 1960, and now resides in St Jarlaths college, with a newly designed cup replacing it in 1961.^[1]

The format of the competition mirrors that of the pre 2001 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship . The four schools winning their provincal championship compete in two semi finals and a final, which is held late in the school year. To increase participation the Colleges All-Ireland senior "B" championship was created in 1975, and a senior "C" championship commenced in 2000^[2]
