2020 Cork Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship
The 2020 Cork Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship is the 17th staging of the Cork Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Cork County Board in 2004. The draw for the group stage placings took place on 19 November 2019.[1] The championship was scheduled to begin in April 2020, however, it was postponed indefinitely due to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Ireland.[2] The championship is scheduled to take place between 1 August 2020 and September 2020.

Format change
On 26 March 2019, three championship proposals were circulated to Cork club delegates. A core element running through all three proposals, put together by the Cork GAA games workgroup, was that there be a group stage of 12 teams and straight relegation and promotion.[3] On 2 April 2019, a majority of 136 club delegates voted for Option A which would see one round of games played in April and two more in August – all with county players available.[4]
Participating teams
The club rankings were based on a championship performance 'points' system over the previous four seasons.[5]
