Shaun Casey chats to the Breffni ace about their positive start to 2026 DIVISION One football is at Cavan’s fingertips. Their promotion charge could be confirmed this weekend, if they beat Ulster rivals Tyrone, and the rise of ladies football in the Breffni County is a story worth telling. It’s all about building from the […]
By Michael McMullan CAVAN’S survival in Division Two is still in their own hands but they must beat Offaly in Tullamore. Dermot McCabe’s side already have the head-to-head on fellow strugglers Kildare and will finish their campaign in Derry on the final weekend. Cavan can’t even think about their clash with the Oakleafers yet. This […]
CAVAN star Niamh Keenaghan has been honoured with The Croke Park Hotel/LGFA Player of the Month award for February 2026. Cavan were crowned Lidl National League Division 3 champions in 2025 and with Niamh and her teammates in excellent form again this year, a second successive promotion could be on the cards. Cavan secured three […]
By Shaun Casey PROMOTION from Division Four is still within Cavan’s grasp but it isn’t their main focus at the minute says manager Ollie Bellew as his Breffni Blues face into their final three league encounters. They make the short journey to Leitrim on Saturday afternoon before taking on table-toppers Sligo and Ulster rivals Monaghan […]
By Niall Gartland AT half time of last weekend’s Division Two meeting of Cavan and Kildare, word filtered through that Louth had plotted an upset against Tyrone. Dermot McCabe’s side were three points in arrears at the interval, and Louth’s win spelled potential bad news. The need to pick up a first league win at […]
By Niall Gartland DID the wheels come off the wagon for Cavan last weekend? Zero points on the board after three matches leaves Dermot McCabe’s side mired in a battle for survival, but the most disappointing element of their defeat to Tyrone was the manner in which they fell away in the second half at […]
Killian Clarke retired from inter-county action at the end of last season after a career that yielded Ulster medals at all levels in the Breffni blue. He spoke with Michael McMullan. WHEN someone plays 134 times for their county, there will always be more under the bonnet than we can ever see. Welcome to a […]
By Michael McMullan JOE Oguz and Darren McCurry should come into the reckoning for selection ahead of Tyrone’s Round Three clash with Cavan. Oguz was ruled out by the medical team after picking up a knock in training during the week, ahead of Saturday’s defeat to Derry in Celtic Park. Darren McCurry should be back […]
By Daire Walsh IT wasn’t something she had necessarily envisaged, but late bloomer Tara Rogers will forever cherish winning an AIB All-Ireland intermediate club football championship title with Cavan’s Knockbride in 2025. Three weeks ago Rogers started at midfield as Knockbride recorded a commanding 3-10 to 0-4 triumph over Caltra Cuans of Galway in the […]
By Niall Gartland CAVAN footballer Niall Carolan didn’t exactly spend the twilight of 2025 with the feet up. He was an integral part of a Cuchulainn’s team that reached the Ulster Intermediate final, and while they fell short against Derry side Glenullin, it was a hugely memorable period for the club and community. Now though, […]
