Oisín McConville (born 13 October 1975) is an Irish Gaelic football manager and former player, born in Crossmaglen in South Armagh, who has managed the Wicklow county team since 2022. He played at senior level for the Armagh county team in the 1990s and 2000s and won an All-Ireland Senior Football Championship medal, seven Ulster Championships and a National League title with the county, together with two All Stars. At club level he played for Crossmaglen Rangers, winning six All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championships, ten Ulster Senior Club Football Championships and 16 Armagh Senior Football Championships. He played as a forward, was one of the game's best point-scorers and an expert free-taker, and is the all-time top Ulster scorer in Championship football. In 2009, to mark the 125th anniversary of the Gaelic Athletic Association, The Irish News named him one of the all-time best 125 footballers from Ulster. His uncle Gene Morgan played for Armagh in the 1953 All-Ireland final and his brother Jim is also regarded as one of Armagh's best ever footballers.
