History
Officially known as the Cork Junior A Hurling Championship, it is regarded as one of the most hotly contested and most difficult to win of all the county championships. Established in 1895 as the "seconds championship", by the 1930s it developed along divisional lines due to the increased number of clubs participating.
The first championship took place in 1895 when Blackrock were crowned junior champions.
Trophy
The winning team is presented with the John Quirke Murphy Cup. A native of Milltown, County Kerry, Johnny Quirke (1911-1983) played hurling for Blackrock. He won four All-Ireland medals with Cork as part of the great four-in-a-row team of the 1940s.
