Irish Open Softball Tournament

The Irish Open Softball Tournament (known as IOST) is the highlight of the softball calendar in Ireland. This tournament sees a large number of teams congregate in Limerick for two days of softball, fun and social antics. Team registration for the Brian Walshe Cup opens up early each year (owing to its popularity), with details advertised on the Softball Ireland website and social media pages.
