Dublin's Alan McCrabbe was the Division 1 top scorer with 1-50. Structure A total of 8 teams contested the top division of the league, including all of the sides from the 2008 season that formerly took part in Divisions 1A and 1B. Due to the restructuring the 2008 Division 2 champions did not gain promotion to the top tier. Each team played all the others in its group once, earning 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw.
