Championship statistics
editMiscellaneous
edit- Five minutes after the final was due to start, the two captains and the referee decided to postpone the game due to foggy conditions. Many spectators left, however, officials from the Limerick County Board intervened stating that the championship would have to be played within the calendar year and not in the springtime as the two captains suggested. The game was played with hundreds of departing spectators unaware of the change.
