Ulster Bank Sigerson Cup Team of the Century

The Ulster Bank Sigerson Cup Team of the Century has been selected.

It was a most challenging task to nominate the best 15 to have played over a 100 year period.

Using a combination of historical records including contemporary press reports, personal knowledge of players dating back to the 1940s and anecdotal evidence, the selection committee endeavoured to select players who represented their colleges with distinction in the Ulster Bank Sigerson Cup competition during the last century.

The main criteria were a clear commitment to the Ulster Bank Sigerson competition as full time students and the demonstration of superior football quality.
