The 2018 All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Croke Cup was the 67th staging of the Croke Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1944. The competition ran from 10 to 31 March 2018.
Our Lady's Secondary School were the defending champions, however, they were beaten by Midleton CBS in the semi-final of the Harty Cup.[1][2] Dublin North were the Leinster Championship winners, however, as an amalgamated team they were debarred from the provincial stage onwards.[3] Their place in the All-Ireland series was taken by Kilkenny CBS, who qualified after beating Good Counsel College in a playoff.[4]
The final was played on 31 March 2018 at Semple Stadium in Thurles, between St Kieran's College and Presentation College, Athenry, in what was their first ever meeting in the final.[5] St Kieran's College won the match by 5–19 to 3–17 to claim their 22nd Croke Cup title overall and a first title in two years.[6][7]
Conor Drennan was the top scorer with 0-20.
