Cork Under-21 Hurling Championship (currently known for sponsorship reasons as the Evening Echo Cork County Under-21 Hurling Championship) is an annual competition for hurling clubs organised by the Cork County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association since 1973.

The series of games are played during the summer and autumn months with the county final currently being played in October or November. The championship had always been played on a straight knockout basis, with the respective divisional champions competing at county level.

Blackrock are the current title-holders after defeating Duhallow in the 2015 championship decider.

Under-21 B Hurling Championship

This competition is confined to clubs who compete at the B level in each of the regional divisions in County Cork. The winners are presented with the Gene Fitzgerald Cup. This cup commemorates Gene Fitzgerald, the former politician who also had administrative positions with Cork GAA County Board.
