From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 217.43.63.95 (talk) at 20:33, 16 June 2007 (Hurling Championship Qualifiers - Group A). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The 121st All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship will commence in May 2007. Kilkenny as holders are the favourites, but Cork, Waterford, Galway and Tipperary are also expected to be in contention. Dublin have performed well in the 2007 NHL and could well reach the quarter-finals this year.

Format

The format of the 2007 championship remains the same as in 2006:

12 counties participate in Tier 1 of the 2007 Championship. These teams are as follows:

The Leinster and Munster championships will be played as usual. The Leinster and Munster champions and runners-up advance directly to the All-Ireland Quarter-Finals. The six remaining teams in Leinster and Munster join Galway and Antrim in the eight-county All-Ireland qualifier series. The eight qualifier teams are divided into two groups of four teams each. Each team will play the others in the group (3 games for each county):

The top two teams in each group join the Leinster winners and runners-up and the Munster winners and runners-up in the All-Ireland Quarter-Finals. The pairings for these four games are as follows:

  • (1) Leinster champions V. second placed team in one Qualifier group
  • (2) Munster champions V. second placed team in the other Qualifier group
  • (3) Leinster runners-up V. first placed team in one Qualifier group
  • (4) Munster runners-up V. first placed team in the other Qualifier group

The two 4th place teams in each qualifier group will play a Relegation Playoff, the loser to go down to the Christy Ring Cup in 2008.
