Overview

Division 1

The National Hurling League's top division featured fourteen teams divided into two equal groups - 1A and 1B. Each group consisted of seven teams. The top two teams from Division 1A automatically qualified for the knock-out semi-finals. The third and fourth placed teams, as well as the top two teams from Division 1B, contested two lone quarter-finals. In spite of losing two group games and finishing second in Division 1A, Cork won the league title following a 4-15 to 4-6 defeat of Limerick in a replay of the final.

Down at the other end of the tables, Kilkenny and Clare won just two of their group stage games and were both relegated to Division 1B. They swapped places with Wexford and Waterford who finished in first and second positions respectively in Division 1B. Kildare finished the group stage without a single win and were relegated to Division 2.
