The Leinster Senior Club Hurling Championship is an annual hurling tournament played between the winners of the senior club hurling championships of the counties in Leinster. The winners represent Leinster in the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship. The current holders of the Leinster title are Cuala from Dublin, who in 2016 became the first team from Dublin since 1979 to win the Leinster title. They defeated O'Loughlin Gaels of Kilkenny by a scoreline of 3-19 to 1-16 in O'Moore Park, Portlaoise in Laois.

The first Leinster senior club hurling championship winners were St Rynagh's of Offaly in 1970-71. Kilkenny is the most successful county to date; Kilkenny clubs have won the Leinster championship on 19 occasions. The most successful club is Ballyhale Shamrocks of Kilkenny who have won the championship on eight occasions.

As of 2015, the champions from counties Carlow, Dublin, Kilkenny, Laois, Offaly, Westmeath and Wexford compete in this competition,^[1] with other counties instead entering their teams at Intermediate or Junior level.
