Gaoth Dobhair are finally off the mark in Division 1 of the All-County League after a win over Glenswilly in Magheragallon on Saturday, with Ethan Harkin scoring nine points.

Glenswilly had shaded the first-half exchanges and led 0-8 to 1-3 at the break with Seaghán Ferry scored the only first-half goal and Kealan Dunleavy showing well for Glenswilly with four points in all. However, Dunleavy would go off injured 10 minutes into the second half.
