The 1992 Croke Cup was the 41st staging of the Croke Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1944. The competition ran from 5 April to 26 April 1992.

St Flannan's College were the defending champions, however, they were beaten by St Colman's College in the Harty Cup final. Representatives from the Ulster Championship contested the All-Ireland series for the first time in 25 years.

The final was played on 26 April 1992 at Semple Stadium in Thurles, between St Kieran's College and St Colman's College, in what was their second meeting in the final overall and a first meeting in 15 years. St Kieran's College won the match by 1–07 to 0–08 to claim a record-equalling 11th Croke Cup title overall and a first title in two years.
