Turning our attention to the hurling championship, both tiers of the senior divisions will be split into two groups of three culminating in the knockout stages and relegation playoffs. 

Meanwhile the intermediate championship will have two groups of three and head straight to a semi-final stage following that. 

Treble seeking Clonkill face a stiff opening test against beaten quarter finalists from a year ago Castlepollard along with Raharney.
