Clare came into the season as the defending champions. For the second year in succession Tipperary declined to field a team in the league. The opening round of the league took place on 8 January 2017.
On 29 January 2017, Cork won the league title following a 1–21 to 1–20 defeat of Limerick. It was their first Munster League title.[2][3]
Five of the six Munster teams compete in the league, with Tipperary opting not to participate.[4]
Each team plays each other team once, earning 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw. The top two teams play each other in the final.[5][6]
