Munster Under-21 Hurling Championship
Encyclopedia
The Munster GAA Hurling Under-21 Championship is an annual hurling
competition organised by the Munster Council
of the Gaelic Athletic Association
since 1964 for players aged between 18 and 21 in the province of Munster
in Ireland
. It is sponsored by Bord Gáis
and therefore officially known as the Bord Gáis Energy Munster GAA Hurling Under-21 Championship.
The series of games are played during the summer months with the Munster final currently being played in July. The prize for the winning team is the Corn na Cásca, a cup that was first presented in 1966 by the Munster Council in honour of the golden jubilee of the Easter Rising
. The championship had always been played on a straight knockout basis whereby once a team lost they are eliminated from the series.
The Munster Championship is an integral part of the wider GAA Hurling All-Ireland Under-21 Championship
. The winners of the Munster final join Galway
, the Leinster
champions and the Ulster
champions in the semi-final stages of the All-Ireland series of games.
Five teams currently participate in the Munster Championship. Cork, the joint record-holders in the All-Ireland series, play their provincial hurling in the Munster Championship. They have converted 18 Munster titles into 11 All-Ireland titles.
The title has been won by five of the six Munster counties. Kerry
hold the unwanted distinction of never having won the provincial title. The all-time record-holders are Tipperary, who have won the competition 19 times.
In 2009, Clare
picked up their first ever Munster Under 21 title after a 2–17 to 2–12 win against Waterford
in the final in Dungarvan.
Each match is played as a single leg. If a match is drawn there is extra time and, if the sides still remain level, a second period of extra time is played.
The format has remained the same since the very first Munster Championship in 1964. An open draw is made in which three of the five teams automatically qualify for the semi-final stage of the competition. Two other teams play in a lone quarter-final with the winner joining the other three teams at the semi-final stage. Once a team is defeated they are eliminated from the championship.
The Munster Championship has wider implications for the GAA All-Ireland Hurling Under-21 Championship
. The winners of the Munster final automatically qualify for the semi-final stages of the All-Ireland series of games. Unlike the final runners-up in the minor and senior championships, there is no 'back-door system' at under-21 level.
Five of the six counties of Munster – Clare
, Cork, Limerick
, Tipperary
and Waterford
– participate in the championship. Kerry
, the sixth county in the province, contested the Munster Championship until recently.
The cup is decorated with ribbons in the colours of the winning team. During the game the cup actually has both teams' sets of ribbons attached and the runners-up ribbons are removed before the presentation. The winning captain accepts the cup on behalf of his team before giving a short speech. Individual members of the winning team then have an opportunity to come to the rostrum to lift the cup.
The present trophy was presented by the Munster Council
in 1966 to commemorate the golden jubilee of the Easter Rising
