1997 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship
The All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship of 1997 (known for sponsorship reasons as the Guinness Hurling Championship 1997) was the 111th staging of Ireland's premier hurling competition. Clare won the championship, beating Tipperary 0-20 to 2-13 in the final at Croke Park, Dublin.

Similarly in Ulster there were many problems as hurling was much weaker and confined to a small few counties in the north-east of the pr ...
