The Séamus Ó Riain Cup was renamed as the Tipperary Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship. This reduced the number of senior hurling clubs in Tipperary from 32 to 16. This meant that unlike in previous years, teams part of the Séamus Ó Riain Cup could no longer compete in their divisional senior championships, where if they were to win, they would enter the knockout stages in a preliminary quarter-final.
