The 2010 Christy Ring Cup was the sixth edition of the Christy Ring Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 2005 and is the second-tier of Hurling for senior county teams (the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship is the first-tier trophy). It is contested by eight GAA county teams ranked 14–21 in the 2010 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship.
Carlow were the reigning champions; however, they did not get the chance to defend their title due to their promotion to the GAA Hurling All-Ireland Senior Championship.
The 2010 Christy Ring Cup final was held at Croke Park, Dublin.
Westmeath defeated Kerry by a point.[1]
