Introduced in 1980, each island, in alternate years, tours the other island playing districts either singly or in combination. Events contested are: Men's and Women's Singles, Men's and Women's Pairs, Men's and Women's Triples (introduced in 1988), Men's and Women's Fours. The tour concludes with a North Island v South Island match for the Henry-Eddy Trophy. Island teams, each consisting of ten men and ten women) are selected from nominations received from districts. In years where there is an International, players selected for the International are not eligible for island selection.
In 1997 the Henry-Eddy Trophy was retired and replaced by the Kevin Eddy Memorial Trophy.
