At some time either in the late 1980s or in the early 1990s, the Ryan Cup - the trophy for the Division 1 Gaelic football league - was presented to the winners of what was then the Division II Championship (non-university). As a result of this mix-up, the Division II Championship became colloquially known as the 'Ryan Cup'.[1] Unfortunately several other GAA trophy competitions bear this name, including still the Higher Education First-Division football league.

The GAA Higher Education Cup Championships are sponsored by Electric Ireland.[2] The Ryan Cup was previously sponsored by Independent.ie [2014-2017], Irish Daily Mail [2012-2013], Ulster Bank [2007-2011], Datapac [2003-2006] and Bus Éireann [1998-2002].
