Dublin hit Tipperary with two goals in the first three minutes, led 5-2 to 0-3 at half time, and scored three more goals early in the second half. Katleen Griffin's goal for Tipperary midway through the second half drew a loud cheer from what was described as a "fair sized attendance."Report of final in Irish Press, August 3, 1953Report of final in Irish Independent, August 3, 1953Report of final in Irish Times, August 3, 1953Report of final in Irish Examiner, August 3, 1953Report of final in Irish News, August 3, 1953 Final stages July 17 Semi-Final Dublin 9-2 – 2-0 Down Mayobridge August 2Final Dublin 8-4 – 1-3 Tipperary Croke Park FFFFFF 87CEEB FFFFFF 87CEEB 000000 Dublin FFFF33 0000ff FFFF33 0000ff 000000 Tipperary DUBLIN: GK 1 Eileen Duffy (Celtic)FB 2 Doretta Blackton (Celtic)RWB 3 Carmel Walsh (CIÉ)CB 4 Pauli Duff (Celtic)LWB 5 Sheila Donnelly (Eoghan Rua)MF 6 Nancy Caffrey (Eoghan Rua)MF 7 Anette Corrigan (UCD)MF 8 Kathleen Mills (CIÉ)RWF 9 Úna O'Connor (Celtic) (4-1)CF 10 Sheila Sleator (Eoghan Rua) (1-0)LWF 11 Ellen Bourke (UCD)FF 12 Sophie Brack (Capt) (CIÉ) (3-3) TIPPERARY: GK 1 Maura Treacy (Elmville)FB 2 Kitty Callanan (Clonmel)RWB 3 Kitty Kirwan (Roscrea)CB 4 Mary Ann O'Brien (Roscrea) (Capt) (0-1)LWB 5 Mary Morris (Clonmel)MF 6 Nancy Folly (Elmville)MF 7 Mary England (Roscrea) (0-2)MF 8 Katleen England (Roscrea)RWF 9 Katleen Griffin (Roscrea) (1-0)CF 10 Terry Griffin (Roscrea)LWF 11 Katleen Downes (Roscrea)FF 12 Tess O'Meara (Clonmel) MATCH RULES 50 minutes Replay if scores level Maximum of 3 substitutions See also All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Wikipedia List of Camogie players National Camogie League Camogie All Stars Awards Ashbourne Cup References External links Camogie Association Historical reports of All Ireland finals All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship: Roll of Honour Camogie on facebook Camogie on GAA Oral History Project All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship 1952 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship 1954 1932 – present Category:1953 in camogie 1953
