The All-Ireland Junior Club Hurling Championship is an annual inter-county club hurling competition organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) since 2002-03 for eligible hurling clubs. Clubs qualify for the competition based on their performance in their county club championships.
The final, usually held in early February, serves as the culmination of a series of games played during the winter months, and the results determine which county's team receives the cup. The championship has always been played on a straight knockout basis whereby once a team loses they are eliminated from the series. In the present format, it begins in October with provincial championships held in Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster, with the four respective champions contesting the subsequent All-Ireland series with the Warwickshire champions.
No team has ever won the championship on more than one occasion. Kilkenny clubs have accumulated the highest number of victories (7 wins), followed by Cork (4 wins). The championship has been won by 12 different clubs. The reigning champions are Glenmore, who secured the title after defeating Eoghan Rua by 2-08 to 0-12 in the 2016 final.
Qualification
The GAA Hurling All-Ireland Junior Club Championship features five teams in the final tournament. A number of teams contest the four provincial junior club championships with the four respective champions, and the Warwickshire champions, automatically qualifying for the All-Ireland series.
