The All-Ireland Junior Club Hurling Championship is an annual inter-county club hurling competition organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) since 2002-03 for eligible hurling clubs. Clubs qualify for the competition based on their performance in their county club championships.

Contents

The final, usually held in early February, serves as the culmination of a series of games played during the winter months, and the results determine which county's team receives the cup. The championship has always been played on a straight knockout basis whereby once a team loses they are eliminated from the series. In the present format, it begins in October with provincial championships held in Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster, with the four respective champions contesting the subsequent All-Ireland series with the British champions.

St Lachtain's are the title-holders, defeating Russell Rovers in the 2025 final.

Qualification

The GAA Hurling All-Ireland Junior Club Championship features five teams in the final tournament. 32 teams contest the five provincial junior club championships with the four provincial champions, and the British champions, automatically qualifying for the All-Ireland series.
