For the boys, the U13 Div 1 League winners received their county medals; as did the Minors, who won the Div 1 League and reached the Championship final.
The Ladies enjoyed tremendous success in 2023 with medals presented for the U14, U16 and Minor teams - at the top level of competitions.
A panel discussion took place including Kieran Callaghan, county board chairman; Mick Flynn, Cavan ladies Div 1A manager and All-Ireland winner; Mullahoran and county star, Killian Brady; Ashling Sheridan, Mullahoran ladies star and Collingwood player.
Seanie Smith and Kathryn Cullen jointly performed the roles of MC for the evening.
Mick Flynn had some sage words of wisdom: “We never asked anyone to win anything, we just asked them to give 100%, every time.”
Killian ‘the Gunner’ went a step further with his advice - telling the young players to give “110%” every time and also advising them of some difficult “lifestyle choices” ahead if they are serious about their football.
Kieran Callaghan remarked that Mullahoran, as a club, is “always to the fore” in the county - on and off the pitch.
The presentations were followed by bingo and a disco, concluding what was a most successful year for the club.
