The 2008 National Hurling League, known for sponsorship reasons as the Allianz National Hurling League, was the 77th edition of the National Hurling League (NHL), an annual hurling competition for the GAA county teams. Tipperary won the league, beating Galway in the final.[1][2][3] The tournament saw the first appearance of Fingal and South Down as "county" teams in the NHL.
