2007 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship

Six teams competed in the Senior Championship out of twenty-seven who competed overall in the Senior, Intermediate and Junior Championships. They included Dublin, returning to senior ranks, managed by Tipperary born David Kennedy.

Cork, Galway, Tipperary and Wexford secured the semi-final spots. Wexford took revenge for their National Camogie League final defeat with an impressive 4–12 to 0–14 victory over Cork in the opening round at Ballincollig and six goals from Sarah Ryan gave Dublin a winning return to senior level with a 6–7 to 1–7 victory over Kilkenny in Portmarnock. Galway beat Kilkenny 1–12 to 1–4 in the second round. Cork beat Tipperary by 0–11 to 1-8 before Tipperary brought Wexford's unbeaten run to an end by 1–17 to 0–11.

In the semi-finals at Nowlan Park Kilkenny, Wexford defeated Galway 2–18 to 0–14 to secure a place in the final for the first time since 1994. Kate Kelly scored 1–11, her goal coming midway through the opening half after a pass from earlier goalscorer Michelle Hearne. Cork defeated Tipperary 2–11 to 0–9 in what was the fourth championship meeting of the sides that year, with goals from Angela Walsh and Una O'Donoghue giving them a place in the final for the seventh time in eight years.[http://www.independent.ie/sport/other-sports/kelly-stars-in-wexford-victory-1057582.html Irish Independent semi-final reports Aug 13 2007]

The final was a tale of three goals. Wexford got the better start when Deirdre Codd won possession in the halfback line, cleared a long ball up-field which was won on the left wing by Ursula Jacob who passed to Michelle Hearne challenging two Cork defenders. The ball broke inside to Una Leacy, who shot past Cork goalkeeper Aoife Murray to the Hill 16-end net.

Una Leacy’s second goal came after 15 minutes. Deirdre Codd won possession at wing-back, her long delivery found Michelle Hearne, who broke the sliotar down and through to the in-rushing Una Leacy. She gathered, and while her first effort was blocked by defender Amanda O'Regan, she kept her composure and hand-passed to the net from the right edge of the square. Wexford's led by five points at half time, 2–2 to 0–3.

Cork's goal came in the 37th minute. Sile Burns sent in a high ball, and Emer Dillon flicked away the hurl of Wexford cornerback Avis Nolan, before gaining the loose ball and cutting the gap to 2–3 to 1–4 with a goal.

Cork cut the margin to a point, Wexford extended it to four, and it came back to two before Mags D’Arcy saved the championship when she saved well from an Orla Cotter shot as Cork sought an equalising goal. Una Leacy almost completed a third goal three minutes into added-time. But her low shot rebounded back off the post, when maybe a point would have been sufficient. Briege Corkery’s long range point four minutes into injury-time was the last score of the match, bringin Wexford’s final margin of success back to two points, 2-7 to 1-8.

Alan Aherne (St Martin's), Eddie Flynn (Rathnure), Noel Ryan (Bunclody) and Stellah Sinnott (Buffers Alley) selected Wexford’s winning team.{{cite news|url=https://www.independent.ie/regionals/wexford/enniscorthy-news/stellah-is-honoured/27223518.html|title=Stellah|newspaper=Enniscorthy Guardian|date=31 October 2007}}
