10 teams will contest the Hotel Kilmore Junior Championship in 2013.

Teams have been drawn into 3 groups, one 4 team (Group 1) and two 3 teams, (Group 2 & 3). The group stages will be played on a league basis. Where teams finish on equal points group placings will be decided in accordance with rule 6.20 of the GAA Official Guide 2013.

The top team in each group will qualify for the semi-finals. The runner up in group 2 and 3 will play off (Round 4(a)), with the winner qualifying to play in a further play off against the runner up in group 1 (Round 4(b)). The winner of this play off will qualify for the semi-final.
