The 2006 Gael Linn Cup, the most important representative competition for elite level participants in the women's team field sport of camogie, was won by Leinster, who defeated Munster in the final, played at Navan.
The 50th anniversary final was staged at Páirc Tailteann, venue for the first match of camogie and the revival inter-provincial series in 1956. Leinster defeated Munster by 2âÂÂ7 to 1âÂÂ8 with two late points. A free by WexfordâÂÂs Kate Kelly and injury-time point from Kilkenny's ÃÂine Fahy clinched victory for Leinster. Munster, who had nine players from Cork's All-Ireland winning side, trailed 2-3 to 0-5 at half-time after Leinster struck goals by Brigit Curran and Marie Dargan. Munster's only goal came 19 minutes into the second half through substitute Clare Catherine O'Loughlin.
A last-minute point from Veronica Curtin enabled Connacht defeat Ulster by a point 3âÂÂ12 to 1âÂÂ17, Ulster having led 1âÂÂ13 to 2âÂÂ4 at half time.
