Following the conclusion of the TG4 All-Ireland Championships, Clare's Fidelma Marrinan was the leading scorer across the Junior, Intermediate and Senior grades. Fidelma's tally of 5-38 (53 points) was good enough to pip Down sharpshooter Natasha Ferris, who finished with 7-31 (52), by just a single point. Despite defeat to Kildare in the 2023 TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Championship Final, Fidelma excelled on the day, notching a personal tally of 1-5.
