Redmonds were the defending champions, however, the club refused to field a team in the championship after a dispute with the county board after the suspension of some players from their Gaelic football team.

On 28 September 1918, Carrigtwohill won the championship following a 4–1 to 1–7 defeat of Blackrock in the final.[1] This was their first championship title ever.
