The Wexford Intermediate A Hurling Championship (known for sponsorship reasons as the Top Oil Intermediate A Hurling Championship) is an annual hurling competition organised by the Wexford County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 2012 for the third tier hurling teams in the county of Wexford in Ireland.

The series of games are played during the summer and autumn months with the county final currently being played in October. The championship features a group stage before the top-ranking teams complete a knock-out series of games. Each year the winners of the Wexford Junior Hurling Championship are promoted to the Intermediate A championship with one team being relegated each year to the Junior level.

The winners of the Intermediate A championship are promoted to the Intermediate Championship (2nd tier) and participate in the Leinster Junior Hurling Championship. One team is relegated from the Intermediate Championship each season to take their place

Twelve clubs currently participate in the Wexford Intermediate A Championship.

Gusserane O’Rahillys are the title-holders after defeating Craanford by 4-20 to 1-09 in the 2020 championship decider.[1]
