The 2020 Christy Ring Cup was the 16th staging of the Christy Ring Cup hurling championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 2005. It is the third tier of hurling as of 2020.[1][2][3]
London were scheduled to compete in the Christy Ring Cup but didn't due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Gaelic games. The championship was scheduled to begin in May 2020 but was delayed until 24 October 2020.[4]
The rise in COVID-19 cases affected the tournament, with two first-round games conceded due to positive tests.[5]
Шаблон:GG were the winners, defeating Шаблон:GG in the final following earlier wins against Шаблон:GG and Шаблон:GG.[6] Both finalists were promoted to the Joe McDonagh Cup for 2021.
The competition featured the first ever inter-county hurling penalty shootout, with Down qualifying for the final by causing an upset through knocking Offaly out in the semi-final.[7][8]

Format
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the normal structure of eight teams competing in two groups of four was abandoned. Seven teams competed in the 2020 Christy Ring Cup. London did not compete as the quarantine restrictions on travel meant that their participation was not feasible.
The 2020 championship had a "back-door" structure designed to ensure that each team had at least two games. Offaly and Sligo conceded their round one games due to rising cases of COVID-19 and Sligo only managed to play one game before being eliminated.
