Conor McGurk Cup
The Conor McGurk Cup is an annual hurling competition organised by the Ulster Council of the Gaelic Athletic Association. It has been held annually since 2018.
The series of games are played during January. The McGurk Cup is effectively a pre-season tournament, allowing teams to experiment prior to the opening of the National Hurling League.
The 2019 competition, the third year of the event, involved nine teams competing in three sections. The 2022 tournament involved seven teams, including both county teams and college teams.
The Down county hurling team won the 2022 final, followed by Donegal in the 2023 competition.
