The 2002 O'Byrne Cup was a Gaelic football competition played by the county teams of Leinster GAA between November 2001 and January 2002.[1]

The tournament was noted for featuring one of the first inter-county Gaelic football games under floodlights, when Meath played Longford in Simonstown Gaels' ground.[2]

It was won by Carlow, their first and (so far) only win. Captain Andrew Corden died in a car crash just three months after.[3][4][5]

Format

The eleven teams are drawn into three groups of 4, 4 and 3 teams respectively.

Each team plays each other team in its group once, earning two points for a win and one for a draw.

The 3 group winners advance the semi-finals.

The runners-up in the two groups of 4 teams play a playoff, with the winner advancing to the semi-finals.
