By Niall Gartland BROTHERS Jude and Pat McNabb are in charge of Cavan club Ramor this year, and while it’s early days, so far things have been going according to plan for the natives of Trillick in County Tyrone. Pat McNabb was joint-manager of the Omagh CBS team that won last year’s MacRory and Hogan […]
By Michael McMullan FOUR Masters went one better than last year by winning the club’s first Ulster minor title on Monday in Belfast. It was a contrast to last season when they had the finish line in sight before Dungiven’s comeback left the Donegal champions as the bridesmaids on final day. Captain Callum McCrea said […]
By Michael McMullan THE first piece of silverware of 2024 will be hoisted into the Belfast sky on Monday. The minor footballers of Cavan Gaels and Four Masters are the envy of every other club in Ulster as their buses nose into the St Paul’s complex.

IT goes without saying that Cavan GAA has a distinguished past, and celebrating that fact is a dedicated new museum in the grounds of Kingspan Breffni. Officially opened last September by GAA President Larry McCarthy, the gallery is a tasteful flavour of all that has gone before – from the halcyon days when Cavan ruled […]
By Niall Gartland JASON Reilly will be back at the helm of Cavan Gaels in 2023. The Cavan legend is in his second stint of the club, and will hope to build on some of the progres made last year, which included an incredible league final victory over Crosserlough. It was Gowna who won the […]
By Niall Gartland CAVAN through and through. Anthony Forde soldiered on for more than a decade after pocketing an Ulster Championship medal in 1997, possibly more in hope than in expectation, but he’s content enough when he looks back on it all.
