The Final[]

Ann Carroll’s shot seven of her team’s ten points for St Paul’s against Ahane in the final. She won club medals with both and St Paul’s Agnes Hourigan wrote in the Irish Press:

The vital difference was the team-work and experience of the Kilkenny girls and their far greater aptitude for taking their chances. This was typified by the way Anne Carroll had six Kilkenny points from frees and placed balls, wonderful accuracy under the conditions. For nine of the St Paul’s side, this was their second All Ireland club title in succession. Anne Carroll further enhanced her almost unbelievable record in this competition by winning her fourth club championship medal in five seasons.
