Colm Anthony McFadden (Irish: Colm Antóin Mac Pháidín; born 1983) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays at full forward for St Michael's and, from 2002 to 2016, for the Donegal county team.
McFadden is Donegal's most-capped Championship player.[3] He played an integral role in Donegal's successful 2011–14 run of matches, starting every Championship game in that period.
Among other accolades, he has one All Star to his name (2012), one All-Ireland Senior Football Championship title (2012), three Ulster Senior Football Championship titles (2011, 2012 and 2014) and one National Football League title (2007). Top scorer in the 2012 All-Ireland SFC, McFadden was subsequently shortlisted for the All Stars Footballer of the Year, but team-mate Karl Lacey was selected to receive that award. McFadden's haul of Ulster SFC titles was a joint county team record (alongside such past players as Anthony Molloy, Martin McHugh, Joyce McMullan and Donal Reid) for four years until Patrick McBrearty, Neil McGee, Paddy McGrath, Leo McLoone, Frank McGlynn, Michael Murphy and Anthony Thompson surpassed it in 2018.
A staff member of St Eunan's College in Letterkenny, McFadden has been deputy principal since 2019.[4]
