Current format and teams

Today six teams play in the competition - Coolera/Standhill, Carly/St. Josephs, Western Gaels, Tourlestrane, Naoimh Eoin and Easkey Sea Blues. Craobh Rua were a team from Sligo town, but today the town now has two teams, Calry/St. Joseph's and Naoimh Eoin. Several amalgamations of hurling teams in Sligo have happened over the years. Tubbercurry, Curry and Coolaney/Mullinabreena all play under Tourlestrane. St. Farnan's play under Easkey Sea Blues or Western Gaels. Western Gaels comprise Enniscrone/Kilglass and Castleconnor. Drumcliffe/Rosses Point and St Molaise Gaels play under Carly/St. Josephs.

The competition is played in a group format with all teams playing each other and the top four qualifying for the semi-finals.
