Contents

St. Nicholas' entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they surrendered their title after refusing to agree to a replay with Fermoy.

On 27 September 1942, Clonakilty won the championship following a 1–08 to 1–05 defeat of Fermoy in the final. [1] This was their second championship title overall and their first title since 1939.

Format change

A motion by Fermoy to divide the county into three divisions for the purpose of playing off the championship was passed by the County Convention. The three divisions effectively operated at local level and cut down on travel costs as a time when there was strict rationing of fuel.
