A new format for the Leinster Hurling Championship is close to being settled, rte.ie reports. The change to the provincial competition's structure is nearing completion, according to the outlet.
The report, published on Monday, indicates the work on the revised format is at an advanced stage but has not yet been confirmed as finished. rte.ie did not set out in the available material which counties would be affected, how many teams would take part, or when any new arrangement would take effect.
The Leinster Hurling Championship is one of the main provincial competitions in the Gaelic Athletic Association's inter-county hurling calendar. Any alteration to how it is run would affect the counties that compete in it and the wider shape of the season.
Further details of the proposed format have not been made public in the reporting available so far. It is also not clear from that material whether the changes would require approval from other GAA bodies before they could be introduced.
The next step is confirmation from the GAA or Leinster GAA on the final format and the timeline for its introduction. Until that happens, the details of the revamp remain unconfirmed beyond rte.ie's report that an agreement is close.
