Matches Played 29

The 2003–04 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship was the 34th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, an inter-county knockout competition for Ireland's top championship clubs representing each county. The championship was won by Newtownshandrum of Cork, who beat Dunloy of Antrim by 0–17 to 1–6 in the final.[1]

Pre-championship

The build-up to the opening of the championship was dominated by Birr and the possibility that they would become the first club to win three All-Ireland titles in-a-row, and a record-breaking fifth championship title over all. Having secured their fifth successive county title, Birr were favourites to retain their provincial title for a third year-in-a-row. This would leave them only two wins away from hurling immortality.
