Galway were the defending champions.[1]
On 18 August 2019, Galway won the championship after a 3-14 to 0-12 defeat of Kilkenny in the All-Ireland final.[2] This was their 13th title overall and their third title in succession.
Competition format edit
The championship begins on a provincial basis in only two of the four provinces – Munster and Leinster. There is no Ulster Championship as Ulster teams participate in the Leinster Championship. Galway are the sole Connacht representatives and enter the competition at the All-Ireland quarter-final group stage with the beaten Leinster and Munster finalists. This ensures that Galway have at least two championship games.[3]
