The Antrim county hurling team represents Antrim GAA, the county board of the Gaelic Athletic Association, in the Gaelic sport of hurling. The team competes in the three major annual inter-county competitions; the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship and the National Hurling League. It also contests the Ulster Senior Hurling Championship when the competition is run, winning the latest title in 2017.
Antrim's home ground is Casement Park, Belfast. The team's manager is Darren Gleeson.
The team last won the Ulster Senior Championship in 2017, but has never won the All-Ireland Senior Championship or the National League.
The team is nicknamed the Saffrons, the Saffron men or the Glensmen.[2][3]
