Lansdowne win the Ulster Bank League in 2018

The All Ireland League was inaugurated in the 1990/91 season with Cork Constitution FC the first winners. The league has undergone several structural changes over the seasons but it remains the pinnacle of club rugby in Ireland.

In that first season Division 1 was made up of Ballymena, Cork Constitution, Garryowen, Instonians, Lansdowne, Malone, St. Mary's College, Shannon and Wanderers.

Division 1 was dominated by Munster clubs for the first decade with Shannon winning four titles in a row between 1995 and 1998. St. Mary's College were the first non Munster club to lift the trophy when they won in the 1999/00 season and were followed by Dungannon in 2000/01.
