The Dr O'Callaghan Cup, officially known as the Cork Post-Primary Schools Senior A Hurling Championship, is an annual inter-schools hurling competition organised by the Cork Post-Primary Schools division of the Cork County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). It was first played in 1911. It is the highest inter-schools hurling competition in the county of Cork.

The final, currently held in March, serves as the culmination of a knockout series of games played between October and March. Eligible players must be under the age of 19. It is a stand-alone competition and runs concurrently with the Dr Harty Cup.

Nine teams currently participate in the Dr O'Callaghan Cup. St Francis College are the title-holders after defeating Christian Brothers College by 2-15 to 2-09 in the 2024 final.
