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]
