Blast from the Past – Part 11 – Senior Hurling

Part 11 in our “Blast from the Past” series — compiled from the Leitrim GAA archive and lightly edited for web readability. This instalment lists the Senior Hurling Championship winners and runners-up where records are conclusive.

Old GAA Yearbooks suggest additional winners in some years (e.g., Mohill in 1904; Manorhamilton Shamrocks in 1906; possible competitions in 1918–1919 and again c.1933–1934), but only results that can be proven conclusively are listed below.
