1 Mixed results for the Cavan footballers THE first year of Raymond Galligan’s tenure in charge of the Cavan senior intercounty football team certainly had its moments. They finished third in Division Two – behind Donegal and Armagh, which is nothing to be embarrassed about – and then they claimed a memorable win over their familiar foes […]
By Michael McMullan CAVAN manager Raymond Galligan has recalled Gearóid McKiernan to the Cavan squad ahead of the 2025 season, Gaelic Life can confirm. The Cavan Gaels player wasn’t of the plans in Galligan’s first season but is back on board. It comes after a similar move in Donegal where former star Michael Murphy has […]
Ulster Club IFC final Arva v Ballinderry Saturday, O’Neill’s Healy Park, 5pm By Michael McMullan BALLINDERRY will need to do what nobody has been able to do in 23 championship games if they are to land the Ulster title in Saturday’s refixed Ulster final. They have to beat Arva. The Shamrocks are up against the […]
Ulster Club IFC final Arva v Ballinderry Saturday, O’Neill’s Healy Park, 5pm By Michael McMullan BALLINDERRY will need to do what nobody has been able to do in 23 championship games if they are to land the Ulster title on Saturday.

By Shaun Casey IF Arva get over the line on Saturday evening and continue their unbelievable winning streak, they will have chalked up a 24th consecutive championship victory and a fifth piece of silverware in 14 months, but Finbar O’Reilly’s men won’t be taking their eye off the ball. Trophies and medals don’t come along […]
Michael McMullen and Damien Donohoe look ahead to the Ulster Intermediate Final between Arva and Ballinderry. Arva are hoping to secure back-to-back Ulster crowns after their Junior success last season, which ended with an All-Ireland title in Croke Park. Ballinderry on the other hand, who won the Senior All-Ireland 20 years ago, are intent on […]
Cavan were All-Ireland u-18 and u-16 champions this year and were narrowly edged out by Galway in the u-14 final. All finals were in the top division. It wasn’t always this way. Mick Flynn began the upward journey 15 years ago. He spoke with Michael McMullan… WHEN the pupils of Cnoc Mhuire in Granard wanted […]

Sheridan’s AFL career with Collingwood has been a huge success since signing with the club […]
By Niall Gartland IT’S something of a big deal. The Lurgan ladies from Cavan will appear in their first-ever Ulster Senior Club Championship final this Sunday when they meet the might of holders Clann Éireann. They’re accustomed to that winning feeling in the Breffni County, mopping up nine of the last 17 titles on offer, […]

In the last year, Arva have collected the Cavan, Ulster and All-Ireland Junior titles before claiming the Cavan IFC trophy. They’ve grown from strength to strength, but the Breffni men won’t […]
