Glenswilly GAA treasurer David McHale presents Leeza Cunningham with her €25,000 from the club development draw
The winner of the top prize of €25,000 in the Glenswilly GAA Club Development Draw had a couple of reasons to be cheerful over the weekend
Twenty-two-year-old Medical Science student Leeza Cunningham from Glencolmcille was in Glenswilly to collect her cheque and then, a keen footballer herself with her local Naomh Columba club, was confirmed in James Daly's Donegal senior football panel for 2025. Donegal open their Lidl LGFA Division 2 campaign this weekend away to Clare.

Leah Doherty from Dumfries, Clonmany, claimed the second prize of €10,000 and Fiona Gallagher of Windmill View, Letterkenny, took third and €5,000.
