The championship was first contested in 1964.[1]
The competition has been won by 17 teams, 11 of which have won it more than once. Kilkenny clubs have accumulated the highest number of victories with 26 wins. St Paul's of Kilkenny is the most successful team in the tournament's history, having won it 13 times.
