Competition Regulations

U20 Football and u21 Hurling championships/competitions will be run on a straight knockout basis.

U21 hurling will have 3 grades – the u21 hurling championship, and u21 Hurling A & B competitions

U20 football will have 5 grades – the u20 football championship, and u20 football A, B, C, and D competitions

All clubs and independent teams entered must be registered on Foireann to take part.

All games will finish on the day – ie extra time and penalties if necessary as per Official Guide

Twenty-four medals shall be provided for the winners of each Championship, and 20 medals for the winners of each A, B, C and D competition.

Numbers of players and substitutions in Championship grades are as specified in the Official Guide -ie 15 a side with 5 subs in normal time.

Games in the A, B, C and D competitions are 15 a side by default – but a game can be played down to 11 a-side if either team does not have sufficient players. In this case playing numbers are determined by the team with the lowest number of players who must start all players available (ie no subs) and a minimum of 11 players. Opposition must match playing numbers down to the minimum if players leave the field through injury but should not match numbers for players leaving the field for disciplinary reasons. Unlimited substitutions can also be used in A, B, C and D competitions.

All games may be schedule on a home/away or at neutral venues (including astro pitches or under lights) as determined by the CCC. Home team pays the referee expenses. 

All games shall be played as fixed by the CCC with no changes or postponements allowed for any reason. If a home team pitch is not available or not playable then the venue automatically switches. If neither pitch is available/playable then the original home team is responsible for providing an alternate pitch. Matches not played will not be refixed and the CCC will award to one team or consider the game as null and void depending on the circumstances.

Except where outlined in these regulations – all A, B, C and D competitions shall be governed by championship rules in the Official Guide.

Any club with 2 teams must provide a list of 15 players to CCC that cannot play with 2nd teams. Additionally, per rule 6.19 any additional players that play with 1st team are no longer eligible to play with 2nd teams.
