The 2024 Kehoe Cup was an inter-county hurling competition in the province of Leinster, played by four county teams: three from Leinster and one (Down) from Ulster. It was the second level of Leinster/Ulster hurling pre-season competitions, below the 2024 Walsh Cup.[1] Kildare were the winners, after winning their three games.[2]

Format[edit]

Each team plays the other teams in the competition once, earning 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw. The first-placed team wins the tournament.[3]
