The draw for the 2000 fixtures took place on 14 November 1999. The championship began on 6 May 2000 and ended on 10 September 2000. Cork were the defending champions but were defeated by Offaly in the All-Ireland semi-final.http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/keepers-of-september-s-flame-1.375336 Keepers of September's flame Irish Times 25 July 2015 12 September 2003 Paddy Downey Carlow, New York and Westmeath fielded teams after long absences. On 10 September 2000, Kilkenny won the championship following a 5–15 to 1–14 defeat of Offaly in the All-Ireland final.http://www.independent.ie/sport/goal-hungry-kilkenny-play-cat-and-mouse-with-offaly-26108846.html Goal hungry Kilkenny play Cat and mouse with Offaly Irish Independent 25 July 2015 11 September 2000 Martin Breheny This was their 26th All-Ireland title, their first in seven championship seasons. It was the third All-Ireland final to feature teams from the same province. Offaly's Johnny Dooley was the championship's top scorer with 0–41. Kilkenny's D. J. Carey was the unanimous choice for Hurler of the Year. New provincial formats Following a motion from the Westmeath County Board at Congress, the Leinster Council proposed the introduction of a "back door system" in their hurling championship. This would be introduced to help develop hurling in the "weaker" counties and to ensure at least two championship games for these teams. While the motion was passed at Congress in April, the new format was rejected by the GAA's management committee at a meeting on 30 October 1999. The committee disagreed with the prospect of allowing losers from earlier rounds to re-enter the championship through a "back door system". As a result of this the Leinster Council were forced to tweak their championship format. This also led to the postponement of the championship draw. The Leinster Council's diluted proposal saw the introduction of a round-robin for the four weakest teams in the province. The group stage winners would join the other three teams in the championship proper. Team changes To Championship Promoted from the All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship Carlow Westmeath Re entered Championship New York From Championship Regraded to the All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship Roscommon Teams Due to the introduction of the round robin system in Leinster, Carlow and Westmeath returned to the championship. On 18 May 2000 the Roscommon County Board announced that the senior hurling team were withdrawing from the Connacht Championship. Nine of the previous year's panel were absent and, together with a lack of commitment from the remaining players, the board were left with no choice but to withdraw. As a result of this the Connacht Championship was not played and Galway's first game was an All-Ireland quarter-final. The Kerry County Board were faced with a similar prospect to Roscommon, however, they declined to withdraw from the Munster Championship. New York joined the Ulster Championship. General information Nineteen counties competed in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship: one team in the Connacht Senior Hurling Championship, seven teams in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship, six teams in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship and five teams in the Ulster Senior Hurling Championship.
