The 1942 All Ireland Camogie Championship was won by Dublin, beating Cork in a replayed final. Cork thought they had won the initial final at the Mardyke when Renee Fitzgerald scored first an equalising, then a late winning goal. Referee Sean Gleeson said he had blown the whistle before Ftzgerald’s second goal. The replay was the first All Ireland final to have a match programme and the first to be broadcast by Radio Éireann.
