Cork senior camogie team is the premier adult camogie team representing County Cork in intercounty competition.

Cork camogie has enjoyed four periods of ascendancy in the All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship, winning 24 titles in all. They won six championships in an eight-year period, 1934-6 and 1939–41, won four-in-a-row 1970-4, won three titles in a five-year period 1978-83, five titles in a seven-year period 1992-8, and six more titles since 2002. They also dominated the National Camogie League despite taking nine years to win their first title in 1984, winning seven-in-a-row 1995-2001 and ten titles in 13 years 1991-2003. They are the leading team at under-16 level with 13 successes.[2]
