The All-Ireland Senior Ladies' Football Championship (Irish: Craobh Shinsir Peile na mBan in Éirinn) is the premier inter-county competition in the game of ladies' Gaelic football in Ireland.[1] The series of games are organised by the Ladies' Gaelic Football Association and are played during the summer months, with the All-Ireland Final being played at Croke Park.[2] The qualifiers were introduced in 2008.[3]
The winning team is presented with the Brendan Martin Cup (Irish: Corn Bhreandáin Uí Mháirtín).[4] The cup is named after Brendan Martin, a native of Tullamore, County Offaly, who organised Ladies' Gaelic football games in the early 1970s and became one of the first treasurers of the newly founded Ladies' Gaelic Football Association.
