The All-Ireland final was a unique occasion as it was the first ever championship meeting between Kiltormer and Birr. It remains their only championship meeting at this level. Both sides were hoping to make history by winning their first All-Ireland title.

Kiltormer stalwarts Ollie Kilkenny and Brendan Dervan were ruled out of the final through injury after a three-game saga with Cashel King Cormacs in the semi-final. The final failed to top that excitement with Kiltormer claiming a 0-15 to 1-8 victory.

Kiltormer's victory secured their first All-Ireland title. They became the 15th club to win the All-Ireland title, while they were the second Galway representatives to claim the ultimate prize.
