Report

There was no League season on the West Coast from 1936-1937, with the Salinas Packers playing an independent schedule. In 1936 they defeated the Los Angeles Bulldogs of the AFL 21-17, and Wisconsin Cardinals 61-0. The Packers played against the Brooklyn Dodgers of the NFL in 1936, losing 18-0 and also the Green Bay Packers (NFL Champions) who won 42-7. [1]

In 1937 the Salinas Packers played three AFL teams: Los Angeles Bulldogs (Later that season AFL Champions), losing 0-13, two victory over the Rochester Tigers (25-0) and (7-3), and the Boston Shamrocks (Salinas beat the defending AFL Champions 41-0). The Bulldogs won two December games against the Packers, leaving a 3-0 sweep for the LA team on the West Coast in 1937. [2]

In 1938 Pro League Football returned to the West Coast, with the California Football League, featuring the Salinas Packers, as well as fellow San Fernando Valley teams the Fresno Crushers & Stockton Shippers, who won the title. There were also teams in Oakland (Cardinals) and Hollywood (Stars), giving the League a Major League feel to it, although it was more AAA in status.

Report

The Pacific Coast Pro Football League of 1934-1935 paved the way for the AAA Pacific Coast Pro Football League of 1940-1948, which from 1943-1945 was a Major League Rival to the NFL on the West Coast.

The PCPFL of the 1930s itself could boast AAA status in 1935, when the Los Angeles Maroons, Hollywood Braves & California Shamrocks vied with the Westwood Cubs for the Championship.

The Del Rey / California Shamrocks were clearly marketed to the Irish Community on the West Coast but had little success, failing to win a game in its two seasons. [1]

Report

The interest in Football in Ashland & Middletown communities in Kentucky led the Armco Manufacturing Company to fund the creation of two Football teams, playing against semi-pro opposition in the Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia area such as the NFL’s Portsmouth Spartans, Canton Bulldogs, Dayton Triangles & Ironton Tanks.

The Portsmouth team would one day move to Detroit becoming the Lions, and are still in existence and the Indianapolis Colts team can be traced back to the Triangles, although the NFL only officially includes the record of the 1953 Colts onwards. Canton, Ohio, is famous as the birthplace of Pro Football, and is where the Pro Football Hall of Fame is based.

Players were employed by Armco and drew large crowds. Ashland won 6 of the 8 games between the two Armco teams.

Ashland’s schedule from 1926 included the following: Canton Bulldogs, Cincinnati Guards, Cincinnati Potters, Cleveland Panthers, Columbus Tigers, Dayton Koors, Dayton Triangles, Ft. Wayne Pyramids, Ironton Tanks, Kokomo Legion, Middletown Armco Blues, Portsmouth Spartans & West Virginia Wildcats.

Middletown’s Schedule included: Akron Awnings, Ashland Armco, Chillicothe Eagles, Cincinnati National Guard, CAC of Cincinnati, Cleveland Indians, Dayton Koors, Dayton Triangles, Hamilton Legion, Bobbs-Chevrolet of Indianapolis, Ironton Tanks, Kokomo Legion, Louisville CAC, Muncie Flyers, Portsmouth Spartans, Portsmouth Presidents, Springfield All Stars, Toledo Police, & Wabash.

Former College players on the roster of Middletown included those with Irish names: Don O’Brien (Purdue), Forest McGuire (Swathmore), Earl Sullivan (St. Xavier).Jim McMillan (Purdue).

In 2015 the Munster League & Leinster League were merged into one ROI League with Semi-Finals & Finals before the Grand Final. The NI League had the same format as previously, with one League followed by a Final.

For 2016 the Munster and Leinster Provinces were merged into one ROI League, with Galway Tribesmen emerging victors, 15-8 over Athboy Longhorns. The went on to win the Grand Final, 36-34 over Ulster Champions Ballynahinch Rabbitohs.

The newly named Longhorns RL, now playing in Ashbourne, though still Co. Meath, won the 2017 title 46-6 over Belfast Met Scholars, after emerging winners over the holders, Galway, in the ROI Championship Final.

The 2018 season saw Longhorns RL again emerging victorious over Galway in the ROI Final, with Belfast Stags narrowly winning NI Championship 30-28 over Portadown Pumas. After a season where many teams dropped out and a lot of games were cancelled, the All-Ireland Final itself, between Longhorns RL and Belfast Stags, was cancelled, after the Stags forfeited.

In 2019, there was no regularly playing Northern Conference, and the Title was contested by 5 Southern Conference teams, with Longhorns winning 38-16 over Dublin City Exiles.

Report

The Rugby League Ireland – Irish Rugby League has been divided into Provincial Championships with an All-Ireland Playoff since 2010.

From 2010-2014, there was a Leinster, Munster and Ulster Championship with Provincial Finals and a Grand Final. From 2016-2018 the Munster and Leinster Provincial Championships were merged into one Republic of Ireland Championship with the winners meeting the Northern Ireland Championship winners in the All-Ireland Final.

In 2010, Dublin City Exiles beat Carlow Crusaders 25-24 to win Leinster, while Treaty City Titans, from Limerick thrashed Cork 50-18 in Munster, and Ballynahinch Rabbitohs triumphed over Fermanagh Redskins 38-20 in Ulster.

Carlow Crusaders won the Leinster Championship in 2011, beating Ulster Champions Ballynahinch 58-22 in the All-Ireland Playoff before losing to Munster winners, Treaty City Titans in the Grand Final, 18-0.

Ballynahich repeated as Ulster Champions in 2012, and beat Leinster Champions Athboy Longhorns 52-22 in the All-Ireland Playoff, before losing 28-24 to Munster Champions Country Cowboys in the Grand Final.

In 2013, Treaty City Titans again won the Grand Final, beating Leinster Champions Dublin City Exiles 36-16 in the Grand Final.

The 2014 season belonged to Leinster, with Barnhall Butchers, of Kildare, winning the All-Ireland Playoff 47-28 against the Rabbitohs, who were again Ulster winners, before sneaking past Treaty City 25-24 in the Grand Final.

Report

The Antracite Football league was set up in 1923 among the Coal-Mining Communities of Pennsylvania and Upsate New York. It was a reaction against the spiralling costs of running a team in the National Football League and the glamour associated with it, which was seen by many as taking away from what was a hard-working class game.

Many of the owners, such as James “Casey” Gildea of the Coaldale Big Green and Joe Keating, James Rafferty & T. Conner of Gilberton had both Irish Christian Names & Family Names, suggesting a strong Irish connection with the League, which was promoted by the Pottsville Republican newspaper as being Football in connection with its roots.

By the end of the year, though, teams were outbidding each other for players and the League began to rival the NFL, ending what was a unique development at the time. [1]
