Arrangements
Leinster overcame Munster in the semi-final and Connacht in the final at Na Fianna's grounds at Mobhi Road, Glansnevin, Dublin. Brigit Doyle scored 2–1 in the unusual position of full-forward while Mary Purcell score two more goals for Leinster. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Agnes Hourigan, who was then president of the Camogie Association, wrote in the Irish Press:
Their first three points came from Angela Downey, who had a skillful display at left-forward. Equally impressive were the next two points from Ann Downey, both from within 30 metres of her own goal, from placed balls. Mary Purcell had a Leinster goal and was to add another in the second half. The second half was one-sided and the issue was never in doubt once Mary Purcell and Wexford's Brigit Doyle scored goals midway through the period. Connacht's only score was a late goal from Teresa Duane.
First half goals from Sarah Ann Quinn and Noreen O'Prey helped Munster defeat Leinster 5–1 to 3–2 in the junior semi-final and they then defeated Ulster in the final by 3–2 to 2–1 with a late goal by Annette O'Donovan.
