Justin McMahon is a Tyrone Gaelic footballer. He was the 2006 captain of the team in their Ulster Championship-winning campaign,[1] and has lived up to expectation and has graduated to the senior squad, joining his older brother, Joe.[2][3]

He played in the MacRory Cup for Omagh CBS in 2004, and captained the team to the semi-final.[1] and his efforts in 2006 have been rewarded with a nomination for the Tyrone All Stars, one of two Omagh men to meet that standard.[4]

In early 2007, Justin was nominated as the Ulster Herald Sports Personality of the Year for 2006, having been the newspaper's Sports Personality of March, when he had captained Tyrone's U-21 Ulster Championship success.[5]

He also played for St. Mary's University College in the 2007 Dr. McKenna Cup.

He made his senior debut for Tyrone in the National Football League second round against Fermanagh. He scored a point in his debut.[6]
