Summary

Description
English: The Sigerson Cup donated by Dr George Sigerson for Intervarsity Gaelic Football competition in 1911. The cup is in the shape of a mether, an ancient Irish drinking vessel. It has four handles representing the four Irish provinces of Ireland - Connacht, Leinster, Munster, and Ulster. The Cup was first presented at a dinner in the Gresham Hotel, Dublin on Thursday 12 May, 1911 to University College Cork, the inaugural tournament winner. The base supporting the cup was extended to accommodate plaques with the names of the team members as space ran out on layers of the base. The original Cup is now in the GAA Museum, Dublin. A replica cup is now presented.
