==History==
From 1979 to 1987 it was known as Torneo delle Quattro Nazioni per Rappresentative di Lega, and was originally competed for by Scotland Semi-Pro, England Semi-Pro, Netherlands Amateurs and Italy Serie C U-21s. The tournament was cancelled in 1986 and abandoned from 1988 to 2001.〔(Four Nations Semi-Pro Tournament (1979-2008) ) RSSSF. Retrieved 20-10-2013.〕
When the tournament returned in 2002, the semi-pro teams of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales competed. The Gibraltar national team replaced Ireland in 2008.〔
The tournament has been won six times by England, three times by Wales and Scotland, and twice by Italy.〔
There was talk of the tournament returning in 2009 but it did not happen. Supposedly, Scotland were rumoured to be considering a withdrawal with Northern Ireland ready to step in and join the semi-pro teams of Wales and England and the Gibraltar national team.〔(Four Nations Tournament 2009 ) Unofficial Blog. 07-11-2008. 20-10-2013.〕 Scotland withdrew from the competition after 2008 because of a lack of funding.〔(SFA pulls plug on semi-pro team ) scotsman.com. 07-11-2008. Retrieved 24-10-2013.〕 Gibraltar later also chose also not to return for 2009. This left the tournament in doubt because it had only two teams signed up for next year's competition.〔(Four Nations Set to Fold ) welsh-premier.com. Retrieved 24-10-2013.〕
