One of the most successful Ulster club footballers retires after 23 year-career with Ballinderry

Enda Muldoon is moving into management.

DERRY LEGEND ENDA Muldoon has announced his retirement from club football at the age of 40.

Muldoon enjoyed a long and successful career with Ballinderry, helping them to the All-Ireland club title in 2002 and Ulster crowns in 2001 and 2013.

In addition he lifted nine county titles with Ballinderry, his first as a minor in 1995 and his last this October, and won an All-Star with Derry in 2004.

He also was part of the Oak Leaf side to win the NFL Division 1 title in 2008, while he won Ulster titles at minor, U21 and senior level with Derry. He also won an All-Ireland U21 medal with the county in 1997.

He confirmed his retirement from club duty on Twitter this evening, saying: “After 23 years of playing senior football for Ballinderry the time has arrived for me to hang up the boots. The pleasure was all mine.”

Last week Muldoon was confirmed as joint-manager of Derry club Banagher along with Declan Mullan.

Former Donegal footballer Eamon McGee was among those to pay tribute to Muldoon after his announcement.
