The 1965 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship was the high point of the 1965 season in Camogie. The championship was won by Dublin who defeated Tipperary by a 13-point margin in the final.[1] [2] [3]
Goals from Ann Carroll and Margo Loughnane gave Tipperary a 2-6 to 0-6 victory over Cork in the Munster final.
Two goals each from Kit Kehoe and Judy Doyle in the third quarter decided the outcome of the final. Agnes Hourigan wrote in the Irish Press
Four great goals flashed home in a decisive offensive early in the second half by the quick silver Dublin forwards ended Tipperary’s hopes of camogie honours in a spectacular and often thrilling All Ireland final.
It marked an important departure in the history of the competition, the first time that the camogie final was given an established date on the calendar, being played in Croke Park on the Sunday after the All-Ireland final for men’s teams in hurling. Of the previous 34 finals, eight had been played in August, five had been played in September, 12 had been played in October, six in November, two in December and one the following July
