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.

Famous quotes containing the words senior and/or club:
“I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Of course we women gossip on occasion. But our appetite for it is not as avid as a man’s. It is in the boys’ gyms, the college fraternity houses, the club locker rooms, the paneled offices of business that gossip reaches its luxuriant flower.”
—Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
