Withdrawals
In July Carlow manager Liam Hayes was forced to pull his side out of the championship due to the unavailability of the majority of his first-choice squad. Hayes made the decision as 12 of his panel were injured and four dual players decided to line out for the Carlow hurlers.[3]
In August the Antrim County Board took the decision to withdraw from the championship due to a full club hurling fixture list, injuries and players on holidays.[4]

gollark: Hmm, so what if, in the signal handler, I longjmp to a function elsewhere, make that do the mmap and stuff, and then horribly abuse something or other to go back to where the segfault happened?
gollark: Maybe I can abuse longjmp somehow.
gollark: No, should I have?
gollark: Yes, why?
gollark: Weird, now mmap doesn't error but it still won't work‽
