The Limerick Intermediate Hurling Championship is an annual hurling competition organised by the Limerick County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association for the third tier hurling teams in County Limerick, Ireland.[2]
The series of games are played during the summer and autumn months with the county final played in a variety of venues, normally in October. The championship includes a group stage which is followed by a knock-out phase for the three top teams in each group. There is also promotion involving the Limerick Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship.
The winners of the Limerick county final don't proceed to Munster competition anymore. Limerick's representative in the Munster Intermediate grade comes from the Premier Intermediate Championship.
Eight clubs currently[when?] participate in the Premier Intermediate Championship.
