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. He died in 2024.[5]
