The All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, commonly known from current sponsorship as the AIB Club Hurling Championship, is an Irish hurling competition. Like its equivalent at senior inter-county level, it is played on a provincial knockout (single elimination) basis. Unlike the All-Ireland inter-county championship there is no "back-door" or second chance for defeated teams. The competition is open to the champion clubs of the strongest hurling counties in the four provinces.
