Colin Holmes is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for the Tyrone county team. He was on the Tyrone panel for their first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship win in 2003 and repeated the feat in 2005, appearing as a substitute in both finals, and he starred in midfield in the 2008 final, starting the move that ended in Brian Dooher's point. Although he played for Tyrone, Holmes played most of his club football for Armagh Harps, where he was club captain. His versatility made him an important member of the panel through a career often blighted by injury, and he won four Ulster Senior Championship medals and three All-Ireland Championship medals.
