2022 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

135th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship

The 2022 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the 135th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association’s premier inter-county hurling tournament, since its establishment in 1887. The provincial fixtures were released on 27 November 2021.[1] The championship began on 16 April 2022 and ended on 17 July 2022.[2]

Limerick entered the championship as defending champions having won the previous two championships.[3]

Westmeath, having won the 2021 Joe McDonagh Cup, returned to the Leinster Championship for the first time since the 2017 competition.[4]

The All-Ireland final was played on 17 July 2022 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Limerick and Kilkenny. Defending champions Limerick won the game by 1-31 to 2-26 to claim their fourth title in five years and their first ever three-in-a-row.[5][6]

Limerick captain Declan Hannon became the first captain to lift the Liam MacCarthy Cup four times.[7]
