Galway are the 2019 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Champions.

The Tribes beat Kilkenny at Croke Park yesterday afternoon on a scoreline of 3-14 to 17 points.

It's the third time they've won the O'Duffy Cup to add to their National League earlier this year.

Manager Cathal Murray says it's a great time for the sport in the county; "I think it's huge for Galway camogie, I think not so much that we won it, I think it's the way we won it, unbelievable work-rate, unbelievable intensity, unbelievable tackling".
