Derry star Jason Muldoon claims double honour at inaugural Wheelchair Hurling All-Stars
Named at forward and crowned Leading Goalscorer, Muldoon was also shortlisted for the overall Wheelchair Hurler of the Year crown.
The Derry and Ulster forward was named on the 2026 All-Star Team and crowned Leading Goalscorer during a landmark Croke Park ceremony on Friday night.
Derry’s Jason Muldoon was among the big winners as the Gaelic Athletic Association and the Camogie Association celebrated the very best of Wheelchair Hurling and Camogie at Croke Park on Friday night (November 13).
Marking the first presentation of a new biennial awards programme, the inaugural 2026 Wheelchair Hurling & Camogie All-Star Awards honoured the players, coaches, volunteers, and officials driving the growth of one of Gaelic Games' most inclusive sports.
Muldoon enjoyed a standout evening, securing a coveted spot as a Forward on the inaugural 2026 All-Star Team while also claiming the Leading Goalscorer accolade following a prolific campaign for Derry and Ulster.
He was joined on the All-Star selection by fellow Ulster stars Kevin Cassidy (Tyrone) in goals and Paul Hannan (Armagh) at the back.
The Derry sharp-shooter was also among three nominees shortlisted for the overall Wheelchair Hurler of the Year crown - alongside Down’s Ciaran Bradley and Limerick’s Maurice Noonan - while Donegal’s Sam McColgan was shortlisted for Wheelchair Camogie Player of the Year alongside Nicola Cushen (Laois) and Ellie Sheehy (Limerick).
Guests from across all four provinces gathered at GAA headquarters for the event, which was sponsored by Martin Donnelly, supported by ClubberTV, and livestreamed nationwide.
Speaking around the landmark occasion, GAA President Jarlath Burns praised the dedication of everyone involved in the code.
“The Wheelchair Hurling & Camogie community represents the very best of what our Association stands for,” Uachtarán CLG said. “The commitment, resilience and passion shown by our players, coaches, volunteers and families is truly inspiring.
“These All-Star Awards give us an opportunity to recognise outstanding achievement, but also to celebrate a game that continues to grow and provide opportunities for people of all abilities to participate, belong and thrive.
“Every nominee and award recipient has helped shape the future of Wheelchair Hurling & Camogie. They have enriched our Gaelic Games community and, through their example, inspired others to become involved.”
