IN 1913, THE GAA bought the sports grounds at Jones Road in Drumcondra in Dublin for £3,500 and named the venue Croke Park / Páirc an Chrócaigh in honour of its first patron, Archbishop Croke.

The first All-Ireland hurling final in the newly inaugurated Croke Park took place that year on Sunday, November 2nd, the first final with 15 players on each team. Kilkenny beat Tipperary 2-4 to 1-2.
