The 2024 Meath Senior B Hurling Championship was the inaugural staging of the Meath Senior B Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Offaly County Board. The championship ran from 14 September to 12 October 2024.

Contents

The final was played on 12 October 2024 at St Loman's Park in Trim, between Longwood and Na Fianna, in what was their first ever meeting in the final. Longwood won the match by 1–13 to 0–14 to claim their first ever championship title. [1] [2]

Creation

County committee delegates approved major changes to the championship format in February 2024. Five different format proposals were put before delegates with one winning unanimous favour and no support for the remaining four. The new format saw two groups of six teams in the Meath SHC, with a seeded draw. The top three team in each group play in the SHC knockout stage and the bottom three teams in each group advanced to the newly created Meath SBHC. The losing SBHC quarter-finalists play in the relegation playoff. [3] [4]
