Munster Schools Junior Cup

The Munster Schools Junior Cup or Munster Junior Cup is the under-age rugby union competition for schools affiliated to the Munster Branch of the IRFU with team members under 16 years of age.

The competition has been traditionally dominated by Cork city's major rugby playing schools C.B.C. (16 titles) & P.B.C. (29). The County Tipperary school Rockwell College has won 19 titles with Limerick schools, largely due to contributions from Crescent College¹ (6) & St. Munchin's (5), winning in all 16 titles.
