The winners of the Connacht Intermediate Hurling Championship each year progress to play the other provincial champions for a chance to win the All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship. The competition has not been played since 1999, and Galway has represented the province in the All-Ireland series. The other counties in the province are not strong enough to field a second hurling team for this competition.

Intermediate level Connacht counties now compete in the Christy Ring Cup and all-connacht matches in the Christy Ring Cup are doubled up as Connacht Intermediate Championship matches.[1]
