The Connacht Intermediate Club Hurling Championship is an annual club competition in Connacht. The Connacht Intermediate Championship was introduced in 2005 for teams deemed not eligible for the senior grade. It forms second tier of Connacht club hurling. Prior to 2008, county champions competed in the senior grade, but since then the senior champions from Mayo, Roscommon and London (since 2018) compete at intermediate level along with the Galway intermediate champions, who receive a bye to the final.
In its current format, the Connacht Intermediate Championship begins in November following the completion of the four County Championships. The 4 participating teams compete in a single-elimination tournament. The winner of the championship qualifies to the All-Ireland Intermediate Club Hurling Championship.
The competition has been won by 11 teams, 5 of which have won it more than once. Tooreen are the most successful team in the championships history, having won it 5 times. Tynagh-Abbey/Duniry are the title holders, defeating Tooreen by 0–19 to 1–14 in the 2024 final.
