Ní Shé, 21, from the Bennekerry/ Tinryland club, finished the campaign on top of the pile after collecting 9-19 during Carlow's Championship season.

Earlier in the campaign, Ní Shé also collected a hat- trick of goals (3-2) in defeat to Wicklow, who would go on to be crowned Junior champions.

Commenting on the award, Clíodhna said: "It's such a huge honour for me. Carlow haven't had the chance to play at Croke Park yet and unfortunately we didn't make it this year but it's still recognition from a Junior team across the three grades. "It was great to be at Croke Park on such a big day and also to witness such a great match between Dublin and Meath. "I'd like to thank Golden Boot sponsors ZuCar for this award – and thanks also to my Carlow team- mates for their efforts this year."
