Chris Lawn is a former Tyrone Gaelic footballer. Along with Peter Canavan, he is one of only two Tyrone men to be on the panel for three All-Ireland Finals (1995, 2003 and 2005), although he was on the substitutes bench for the entirety of the 2003 final, and came on as a substitute in the 2005 final, for the injured Joe McMahon. He has All-Ireland medals from 2003 and 2005. He was nominated for an all-star award in 1995, but was unlucky to lose out. He also until this day has been a long serving stalwart of the Moortown team, including a brief stint as manager.
After championship success in 2005, he, along with Peter Canavan, announced his retirement from inter-county football, after a very successful inter-county career.
