Contents

On 24 October 2004, Watergrasshill won the championship after a 2-13 to 2–08 defeat of Dromina in the final at Páirc Uí Chaoimh. [1] It remains their only championship title in the grade.

Nemo Rangers' James Masters was the championship's top scorer with 4-34.

Format change

In 2003 the Cork County Board Executive established a Hurling Championship Review Committee in an effort to improve the competitiveness of the Cork Senior Championship. The committee also proposed the splitting of the existing Cork Intermediate Championship in two with the creation of a 16-team Premier Intermediate Championship and a 16-team Intermediate Hurling Championship. The 10 lowest-ranked teams from the 2003 Intermediate Championship were joined by the 2003 Junior Championship winners as well as the individual divisional winners - Argideen Rangers, Kanturk, Carrigaline, Blackrock and Watergrasshill. Grenagh, who won the Mid Cork Junior Championship division in the junior grade, declined the invitation.
