The AIL will undergo a league restructure next season.
The IRFU is confirming that the bottom two flights of the Energia All-Ireland League will be regionalised.
Divisions 2B and 2C will be split into north and south sections next season, with Division One A and B unchanged.
The IRFU's Director of Rugby Development, Colin McEntee, says it will help to reduce travel costs for teams and will ensure the "long-term sustainability" of the AIL.
Head Coach of Buccaneers Rugby Club, Darin Claasen believes changes are being made due to the distance teams are travelling for matches.
He says it'll be an interesting change next season:
