The 1979 All-Ireland Senior Club Camogie Championship for the leading clubs in the women's team field sport of camogie was won by Buffers Alley from Wexford, who defeated Athenry from Galway in the final, played at Athenry.[1][2]

The championship was organised on the traditional provincial system used in Gaelic Games since the 1880s, with Ballyagran and Portglenone winning the championships of the other two provinces. Fiona Cousins, Teresa Hobbs, Dorothy Walsh and Bridie Doran scored Alley’s goal as they dethroned the champions Ballyagran in the semi-final.
