The Limerick Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship (known for sponsorship reasons as the LIT Limerick Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship) is an annual hurling competition organised by the Limerick County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 2014 for the second tier hurling teams in the county of Limerick in Ireland.[1]

The series of games are played during the summer and autumn months with the county final currently being played at the Gaelic Grounds in October. The championship uses a round robin format followed by a knock-out stage.

The Limerick County Championship is an integral part of the wider Munster Intermediate Club Hurling Championship. The winners of the Limerick county final join the champions of the other five counties to contest the provincial championship.

Eight teams currently participate in the Limerick County Championship.

Murroe-Boher are the title-holders after defeating Garryspillane by 1-21 to 1-15 in the 2017 championship final replay.[2]
