Other records

Beaten sides

Between 1887 and 1996 the championship was played on a straight knock out format whereby the All-Ireland champions were the only undefeated team of the competition. The introduction of the qualifier system in 1997 has resulted in five 'back-door' All-Ireland champions:

On a number of occasions teams have been defeated twice but have remained in the championship:

Final success rate

Only one county has appeared in the final once, being victorious on that occasion:

Historic success rate

When a county won its first All Ireland before losing a final at a later time

On the opposite end of the scale, only one county has appeared in the final more than once, losing on each occasion:

Winning other trophies

Although not an officially recognised achievement, a number of teams have achieved the distinction of winning the All-Ireland championship, their provincial championship and the National Hurling League:

  • Kilkenny in 1933, 1982, 1983, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2014.
  • Tipperary in 1949, 1950, 1961, 1964, 1965 and 2001.
  • Cork in 1926, 1941 and 1953.
  • Limerick in 1934, 1936 and 2020.
  • Galway in 1987 and 2017.
  • Wexford in 1956.

Biggest wins

Successful defending

Only 5 teams of the 13 who have won the All-Ireland championship have ever successfully defended the title. These are:

  • Kilkenny on 13 attempts out of 36 (1905, 1912, 1913, 1933, 1975, 1983, 1993, 2003, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2015)
  • Cork on 12 attempts out of 30 (1893, 1894, 1903, 1929, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1953, 1954, 1977, 1978, 2005)

Longest undefeated run

The record for the longest unbeaten run stands at 21 games held by Kilkenny. It began with a 1–23 to 1–9 win against Westmeath in their opening game of the 2006 championship and finished with a 3–22 to 0–19 win against Cork in the All-Ireland semi-final of the 2010 championship. The 21-game unbeaten streak, which included no drawn game, ended with a 4–17 to 1–18 loss to Tipperary in the 2010 All-Ireland final.

This broke the previous record of 16 consecutive games unbeaten by Tipperary, which began in May 1949 with a victory in the opening round of the championship, and ended with a seventeen-point defeat of Waterford in the Munster semi-final of the 1952 championship. The 16-game unbeaten streak, which included 15 wins and one draw, ended with a 1–11 to 2–6 loss to Cork in the subsequent Munster final.

Disciplinary

Just six players have ever been sent off in an All-Ireland final: Tom Ryan of Tipperary and Lar Foley of Dublin in the 1961 final, Éamonn Scallan of Wexford in the 1996 final against Limerick (sent off in the 34th minute); Benny Dunne of Tipperary in the 2009 final and Cyril Donnellan of Galway in the 2012 final replay and Richie Hogan of Kilkenny in the 2019 final

Managers

Records

Danny O Connell managed Kilkenny to win eleven All-Ireland senior titles, in 1904,1905,1907,1909,1911,1912,1913,1932,1933,1935 and 1939.

  • Brian Cody is the only manager to win the All-Ireland title eleven times, in 2000, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015 (all Kilkenny).
  • Just two managers have reached the All-Ireland final with two different teams:
  • In 2009, Justin McCarthy became the first manager to reach the All-Ireland semi-finals with three different teams: Cork (1975, 1984), Waterford (2002, 2004, 2006, 2007) and Limerick (2009). In addition, he was in charge of Clare in the 1978 Munster final, when a win would have qualified them directly for the all-Ireland final.
  • Fourteen individuals have won the All-Ireland as a player then later as a manager:

Team results table

This section represents in colour-coded tabular format the results of GAA county teams in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship since 1997.

Prior to 1997, counties played in separate provincial championships, with only four provincial champions coming together in the All-Ireland semi-finals, and it is difficult to directly compare results across counties. Since 1997, several beaten teams from the provincial championships play together in the All-Ireland qualifier series.
