It is the primary inter-county hurling championship for boys under the age of eighteen. The championship began on 5 April 2017 and ended on 3 September 2017.
Tipperary entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they were defeated by Cork in a Munster semi-final replay.[1][2][3]
On 3 September 2017 Galway won the championship following a 2-17 to 2-15 defeat of Cork in the All-Ireland final. This was their 11th All-Ireland title and their first in two championship seasons.[4]
