The 2020 Cork Intermediate A Hurling Championship is due to be the inaugural staging of the Cork Intermediate A Hurling Championship and the 111th staging overall of a championship for middle-ranking intermediate hurling teams in Cork. The draw for the group stage placings took place on 19 November 2019.[1]
The championship was scheduled to begin in April 2020, however, the competition was postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Ireland.[2]
Format change
On 26 March 2019, three championship proposals were circulated to Cork club delegates. A core element running through all three proposals, put together by the Cork GAA games workgroup, was that there be a group stage of 12 teams, straight relegation, and one team from the divisions/colleges section to enter at the preliminary quarter-final stage.[3] On 2 April 2019, a majority of 136 club delegates voted for Option A which would see one round of games played in April and two more in August – all with county players available.[4]
Participating teams
The club rankings were based on a championship performance 'points' system over the previous four seasons.[5]
