1941 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship
The 1941 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the 55th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county hurling tournament. The championship ended on 28 September 1941.
The championship was won by Cork who secured the title following a 5-11 to 0-6 defeat of Dublin in the All-Ireland final. This was their 12th All-Ireland title, their first in ten championship seasons.
Limerick were the defending champions.
Foot-and-mouth disease
There was major disruption to the format of the 1941 championship due to a serious outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in many parts of Munster and south Leinster. The championship was run on a knockout provincial basis as usual, however, there was a certain amount of tweaking required to cope with the situation.
In the Munster championship Limerick defeated Waterford in the semi-final of the competition and qualified for the Munster final. Cork were drawn to meet Tipperary in the second semi-final, however, this game was cancelled by the Munster Council at the behest of the Department of Agriculture. As a result of this it was decided that Cork would play Limerick and the winners would represent Munster in the All-Ireland series. The delayed Cork-Tipperary game took place after the All-Ireland series, however, since Cork had already beaten Limerick this was now deemed to be the Munster decider. Tipperary won that game.

Goodbye free Ireland
Try again soon
The tommies and sirens
Are wolves in the moon
Devouring your children
With the law's empty spoon
They've no time for talking
Who are calling the tune
Your spirit is proven
There's no need to die
For nationalist slogan
Or Religious lie
They've both lived too long
And they should be long gone
And there'll not be a new song
