The winners of the Laois Junior Championship qualify to represent thecounty in the Leinster Junior Club Hurling Championship. They often do well there, with the likes of Ballyfin (2011) getting to a Leinster Final after winning the Laois Junior Hurling Championship but Kilkenny GAA club St Patrick's beat them on their way to the All-Ireland title.[2] The winners can, in turn, go on to play in the All-Ireland Junior Club Hurling Championship.
