The championship began on 19 July 2014 and ended on 28 September 2014.

Teams
All but one of the eight teams from the 2013 championship participated in the top tier of Laois hurling in 2014.
Portlaoise, who defeated Clough–Ballacolla in the final of the junior championship in 2013, availed of their right to automatic promotion to the senior championship.
Similarly, The Harps defeated Ballinakill in the 2013 senior relegation play-off, and so Ballinakill were relegated to the junior grade for 2014.
