On 23 January 2016, Clare won the league following an 0-18 to 0-17 defeat of Limerick in the final.

[2][3] Limerick's Declan Hannon was the league's top scorer with 1-21.

Five of the six Munster teams compete in the league, with Tipperary opting not to participate.

Unlike its predecessor, the Waterford Crystal Cup, the league is confined to inter-county teams only.

Originally the top two teams were to play each other in the final, but as both Clare and Limerick won their first three games, it was decided that the last group game would double up as the Munster Senior Hurling League final.
