Dermot McCabe (born 17 May 1976) is a former Gaelic footballer who played for the Cavan county team.[1][2]

Playing career[edit]

He broke into the Cavan team in 1995 when they lost an Ulster final against Tyrone. He helped Cavan reach the All-Ireland Under 21 Football Championship final in 1996, but they were defeated by Kerry. In 1997, McCabe was highly influential as Cavan claimed the Ulster Senior Football Championship, beating Derry in Clones.

Widely regarded as one of Cavan's best players of modern times, McCabe claimed an All-Star Award for his efforts in 1997. He played for Ireland in the revived 1998 International Rules Series against Australia. He was one of Ireland's stars by scoring 14 points. He was again selected for Ireland when they won the 2001 International Rules Series.[3][4]

In 2011 McCabe was part of the Cavan minor team management when they won the Ulster Minor Football Championship.[5]
