Emlyn Mulligan is a Gaelic footballer from County Leitrim. He plays with the Leitrim senior county team and Dublin club side St Brigid's. A top class free-taker, he scored 1-34 in the 2008 National Football League. The high point of his career came in captaining Leitrim to the FBD Insurance League in 2013 - though it a notable achievement in this case as it was only Leitrim's fourth ever trophy and their first since 1994. He scored 3-8 in New York in 2013, described by experts as "some feat". He took a year out to go travelling ahead of Leitrim's 2015 campaign.
A Garda, he has also played soccer with Sligo Rovers. He has played for Connacht too, helping them to a first Interprovincial Championship for over 40 years in 2014.
