Arrangements

The championship was organised on the traditional provincial system used in Gaelic Games since the 1880s, with Rathnure and Leitrim Fontenoys winning the championships of the other two provinces. The 14-year-old Eileen O'Brien, who had won All-Ireland Colleges senior and sevens medals earlier in the season, scored 11 points for Granagh-Ballingarry in the semi-final against Leitrim Fontenoys of Down.

The Final

In the final, Eileen O'Brien, was restricted to two points by Aisling Ward while Maureen Sheehan confined Sharon Glynn to four scores.[3][4][5]

gollark: <@151391317740486657> Ah yes, so I have to additionally deal with an extra thing to carry around and cannot listen to music on my phone whilst I charge it.
gollark: Also, making it symmetrical is not a good enough reason to make it incompatible with 90% of the headphones around and make the available ones for it cost more.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> They're very cheap though, and you might be able to add custom ROMs.
gollark: You didn't have time? Isn't this quite a long challenge thing?
gollark: Also the fact that most stuff, even if it uses DC internally (most things probably do), runs off mains AC and has some sort of built-in/shipped-with-it power supply, and there aren't really common standards for high-powered lower-voltage DC connectors around. Except USB-C, I guess? That goes to 100W.
