The 2022 All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Croke Cup was the 69th staging of the Croke Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1944. It was the first Croke Cup to be completed in three years as the 2020 and 2021 competitions were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] The competition ran from 19 February to 17 March 2022.
St Kieran's College were the defending champions.[2] Dublin Schools South were the Leinster Championship runners-up, however, as an amalgamated team they were debarred from the provincial stage onwards.[3] Their place in the All-Ireland series was taken by St Kieran's College, who qualified after beating CBS Kilkenny in a playoff.[4]
The final was played on 17 March 2022 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Ardscoil Rís, Limerick and St Kieran's College, in what was their fourth meeting in the final overall and a first meeting in three years.[5] Ardscoil Rís won the match by 1–17 to 0–15 to claim their first ever Croke Cup title.[6][7]
Niall O'Farrell was the top scorer with 0-22.
