Donegal U-20 panel named for 2025 season as championship campaign begins

One of Donegal's top underage goalkeepers Padraig Mac Giolla Bhríde has been named in the panel

Donegal U-20 manager Gary Boyle has named his football panel for the 2025 season.

The county's U-20 footballers are set to compete in the Ulster U-20 Championship tonight as they face Fermanagh in Brewster Park with a 7.30pm throw-in.

Boyle, who has been instrumental in developing and overseeing Donegal’s underage football structures over the past decade, has named a strong panel that showcases a blend of youth and experience, drawn from clubs across the county.

No doubt that many will have gained experience in recent months with many players participating in the MacRory Cup competition for Donegal Southwest and the Abbey Vocational School.

The leadership of the panel will be crucial as Donegal looks to build momentum in the Ulster U-20 Championship. Sean Martin, from Sean MacCumhaills, has been named the captain for the 2025 season. Martin’s leadership qualities, combined with his experience in the senior ranks, are expected to play a pivotal role as Donegal aims for success in the competition.

Alongside him, Mark McDevitt of Naomh Conaill has been appointed as vice-captain. McDevitt, a player known for his work ethic and vision, will be key in supporting Martin and ensuring that the team performs at its best.
