The 1994–95 format saw the 10 participating teams divided into two groups of five – a northern group and a southern group. The teams played a single round of games against the other teams in their group. The two winners, UCD and Drogheda United, then played off in a two legged final. UCD won 2-1 on aggregate. The competition was played during the first half of the season with the two legged final played in October 1994.
