Report
Munster’s Limerick Originals won the Championship in 2010, beating Oddsox Green of Dublin (Leinster) 5-0 in the Final [2] . From then on Leinster teams dominated, with Dodder Dynamoes defeating Batpak (both Dublin) 17-7 in 2011 [3] , and Oddsox Green making up for the 2010 loss by beating fellow Southside Dubliners Kiely’s Kegs in the 2012 Final [4].
Kegs won the title in 2013 beat Belfast Brawlers [5; 13] , and in 2014 Oddsox Green won their second National Championship, defeating Belfast Brawlers 18-7. In 2015 TNT (a.k.a. The New Team) also from Dublin defeated Belfast Sliders (Ulster) 19-9 [6] .
From then on the SINCC was a straight final between the Leinster and Ulster winners as the Munster League had ceased. Dodder Dynamoes won the title for the second time in 2016 [7][8] and in 2017 Belfast Brawlers were defeated for the second year in a row – TNT picked up their second title, winning 26-3 [9].
Dodder Dynamoes won the next two National Championships – 30-9 against Belfast Brawlers in 2018, and then again the following year against the same opposition 17-5.
