The 2022 McGrath Cup was an inter-county Gaelic football competition in the province of Munster, played by all six county teams.[1][2][3] It was won by Kerry.[4]
Format[]
The teams are drawn into two groups of three teams. Each team plays the other teams in its group once, earning 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw. The two group winners play in the final; if the final is a draw, it goes to a penalty shootout without extra time being played.[5]
