Semi-finals
Kilkenny won the Leinster Championship for the first time when they defeated Dublin 5–3 to 4–3 and received an unexpected bye to the All-Ireland final when Galway withdrew, receiving a three-month suspension from Central Council for failing to fulfil the fixture.

Final
Cork took control of the final in the first half. Agnes Hourigan wrote in the Irish Press "The game was won and lost in the five minutes preceding the interval with Wexford leading 1-1 to 0-2 in the 20th minute when, Rosie Hennessy and Anne Comerford, last year’s captain, cracked home three Cork goals."
