Event history
From the BGB website The first Senior Home International was played in Oxford 30th May - 1st June 2008. The national teams of the five countries were joined by a Patron’s team led by Bernard Teltscher, who agreed to support the event for its first five-year cycle. The Patron’s team could win the event but not the trophy. The winning team was England (Paul Hackett & Ross Harper, Gunnar Hallberg & John Holland, Ian Panto & Tony Waterlow, npc John Williams).
As of 2025 England have won eight times, Scotland five times, Republic of Ireland three times and Wales twice. Northern Ireland are yet to win.
