The 1942 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Final was the eleventh All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1942 All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship, an inter-county camogie tournament for the top teams in Ireland.

Dublin were the better team in the first half, but only led by a point to no score at the break. In the second half, Doreen Rogers scored a goal for Dublin, but Renee Fitzgerald replied with a Cork goal and had another disallowed near the end. The game was drawn.

The replay was played in Croke Park three weeks later, and Dublin led 2-1 to 0-0 at the break, including a controversial Doreen Rogers goal that was argued to have been scored from inside the small rectangle. Dublin maintained their advantage to the end and prevented a Cork four-in-a-row.[1]
