The South Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship (known for sponsorship reasons as the Clonmel Oil South Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship) is an annual hurling competition organised by the South Tipperary Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 1907 for senior hurling teams in South Tipperary, Ireland.
The series of games begin in April, with the championship culminating with the final in August. The championship has always been played using a knock-out format.
The South Tipperary Championship was, until recent times, an integral part of the wider Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship. The winners and runners-up of the South Tipperary Championship joined their counterparts from the other three divisions to contest the county championship quarter-finals.
Five clubs currently participate in the Mid Tipperary Championship. The title has been won at least once by 20 different teams. The all-time record-holders are Carrick Swans who have won a total of 23 titles.
Mullinahone are the title-holders after defeating Carrick Swans by 1-18 to 1-16 in the 2019 championship final.[1]
