Limerick Senior Hurling Championship
The Limerick Senior Hurling Club Championship is an annual Gaelic Athletic Association club competition between the top Limerick clubs. The winners of the Limerick Championship qualify to represent their county in the Munster Senior Club Hurling Championship, and in turn go on to the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship. Since 1928, the winners of the championship are presented with the John Daly cup.

Famous quotes containing the words limerick and/or senior:
“Galway is a blackguard place,
To Cork I give my curse,
Tralee is bad enough,
But Limerick is worse.
Which is worst I cannot tell,
They’re everyone so filthy,
But of the towns which I have seen
Worst luck to Clonakilty.”
—Anonymous. “Clonakilty,” from Geoffrey Grigson’s Faber Book of Epigrams and Epitaphs, Faber & Faber (1977)
“Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
