The launch of the Michael Lyng Motors Hyundai Intermediate Hurling League & Championship and the JJ Kavanagh Premier Junior Hurling League & Championship took place this week at UPMC Nowlan Park, with sponsors, players, officials and club representatives in attendance.
Kilkenny GAA Chairman PJ Kenny, Neil Lyng of Michael Lyng Motors and Paul Kavanagh of JJ Kavanagh addressed those gathered, as anticipation continues to build ahead of the 2026 season. We extend our sincere thanks to both sponsors for their continued commitment and valued support of club hurling in Kilkenny.
With the opening rounds scheduled for next weekend, excitement is building across the county. Supporters are encouraged to keep an eye on the Kilkenny GAA website and social media channels over the coming days for fixtures, photos, reels and all the latest updates as the leagues get underway.
A special word of thanks also to our local media for their coverage of the launches. Supporters can catch interviews with players and sponsors across the local newspaper, radio and social media, and we look forward to their continued coverage of what promises to be another outstanding season of club hurling.
