Counties Participating:
Eight Counties participated in the 2011 Championship following the promotion of Intermediate
champions Offaly at the end of the 2010 season. These are Clare, Cork, Dublin, Galway, Kilkenny, Offaly, Tipperary and Wexford.
Round-robin series:
The seven counties participate in a group series with the top four progressing to the All-Ireland Semi-Finals.
For a twenty-year period from 1974 until 1994 the Kilkenny camogie team dominated the championship. During those two decades the team collected twelve All-Ireland titles. Like Dublin’s story Kilkenny have also gone into decline and they haven’t won an All-Ireland title since 1994.
Since the turn of the twenty-first century both the Cork and Tipperary camogie teams have dominated the All-Ireland championship. Since 1997 at least one of these counties have appeared in the All-Ireland final every year. Between 1999 and 2006 Tipp won five All-Ireland titles from eight consecutive final appearances. Since 1997 Cork have won seven All-Ireland titles, their latest coming in 2009.
Six counties - Louth, Derry, Down, Limerick, Mayo and Waterford – all hold the unfortunate record of appearing in All-Ireland finals without ever winning the O’Duffy Cup.

Top winners
Dublin have won the All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship the most times – twenty-six titles as of 1984. They won the very first All-Ireland title in 1932 and went on to dominate the competition for the next fifty years. Between 1948 and 1955 they won eight consecutive titles in-a-row. Two years later in 1957 Dublin began another great run of success which ended in 1966 with the capturing of their tenth consecutive All-Ireland title. Had it not been for defeats in 1947, 1956 and 1967 it is reasonable to assume that Dublin could have captured twenty-one All-Ireland titles in succession. ‘The Dubs’, however, have gone into decline over the last two decades and haven’t won the All-Ireland since 1984.For a twenty-year period from 1974 until 1994 the Kilkenny camogie team dominated the championship. During those two decades the team collected twelve All-Ireland titles. Like Dublin’s story Kilkenny have also gone into decline and they haven’t won an All-Ireland title since 1994.
Since the turn of the twenty-first century both the Cork and Tipperary camogie teams have dominated the All-Ireland championship. Since 1997 at least one of these counties have appeared in the All-Ireland final every year. Between 1999 and 2006 Tipp won five All-Ireland titles from eight consecutive final appearances. Since 1997 Cork have won seven All-Ireland titles, their latest coming in 2009.
