Background Prior to the establishment of an All-Ireland competition in 1969, colleges competitions had been organised in Cork in 1914 and Dublin in 1919. Dublin and Cork colleges played an annual inter-city fixture. Dublin schools teams also participated in the Dublin league against club sides.
In the inaugural competition in 1969, Presentation Secondary School, Kilkenny defeated St Michael's, Lurgan by 5-0 to 2-2 in the first All-Ireland semi-final and in the final defeated St Aloysius, Cork, who had defeated St. Mary's, Tuam in the other semi-final. All-Ireland finals were held at Croke Park until 1981. The first midweek final took place in 1998 at The Ragg in Thurles, the first sportsfield to be designated exclusively for camogie fixtures. Eileen O'Brien from St Mary's, Charleville won nine All-Ireland colleges medals, one junior, four senior and four seven-a-side colleges medals. She scored 0-11 in the 1995 final when she was 14.
