Format change
The number of participating teams increased from eight to sixteen as all participants in the four divisional semi-finals qualified. Divisional teams entered the county championship at different stages. In round one the eight beaten divisional semi-finalists played off to produce four teams. In round two these four teams played the defeated divisional finalists. The four winners played the four divisional winners in the quarter-finals, from which followed the semis and final.
Relegation was also introduced for the first time. Any team that didn't reach the semi-final stage in the respective divisional championships faced the prospect of relegation from senior to intermediate.
