The 1932–33 National Hurling League was the sixth edition of the National Hurling League, which ran from 18 September 1932 until 9 April 1933.

The ten participating teams were Clare, Cork, Dublin, Galway, Kilkenny, Laois, Limerick, Offaly, Tipperary and Waterford who were divided into two divisions and agreed to play a four-game format whereby each team would play each of their five rivals once with two points awarded for a win and one point awarded for a drawn game. The two teams with the most points in each division at the completion of the season would play a final to decide the National Hurling League champions.

Kilkenny defeated Limerick by 3-8 to 1-3 in the final.

Kilkenny also won the All-Ireland Championship in 1933, the second time that a team completed the league-championship double.
