Teams

A total of eighteen teams entered the under-21 championship, the same number as the previous year, however, there was a difference in the composition. In Munster, Kerry declined to field a team in spite of a spirited display against Galway the previous year. In Leinster, CArlow and Louth made way for Meath and Wicklow. An Ulster championship was organised for the first time, with Down joining porvincial kingpins Antrim.
