Several Irish counties play a county hurling championship, with one club progressing to the All-Ireland Senior Club Intermediate Championship. This includes:

  • the top-tier competition (Senior County Championship) in several low-ranked hurling counties, as well as continental Europe
  • the second-tier competition (called the Intermediate or Junior Championship) in some mid-ranked hurling counties
  • the third-tier competition (called the Junior or Junior A Championship) in the top-ranked hurling counties

Each province plays their own championship (all being straight knockout) with the four provincial champions qualifying for the All-Ireland Junior semi-finals. The European champions play in the Leinster championship.

The senior champions of the top hurling counties play in the 2024–25 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship. Other county winners play in the 2024–25 All-Ireland Intermediate Club Hurling Championship.
