WE’RE GOING LIVE at the launch of the 2016 Michael Murphy Sports & Leisure Donegal Championships in the Radisson Blu Hotel in Letterkenny.

The launch of the 2016 Michael Murphy Sports & Leisure Donegal Championships takes place at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Letterkenny – and we’re broadcasting the launch live.

First up were the Donegal County Chairman Sean Dunnion and the Donegal senior football team manager Rory Gallagher

Burt are the reigning Donegal Senior Hurling Champions and Paul Burns represented the Hibernian Park club at the launch, while Mark McFadden of Letterkenny Gaels and Hugh Harkin of St Mary’s Convoy discuss their junior football championship hopes – and Michael Murphy, of Michael Murphy Sports & Leisure, talks about his involvement:

Milford manager Danny O’Donnell and Naomh Colmcille player Daniel Clarke talk about their hopes for the Intermediate Championship and Charlie looks forward to Group A in the SFC with Barry Keaney of Bundoran, Glenswilly’s Brian Farrelly and Ardara PRO Frank Craig:

Group C in the 2016 Donegal SFC is comprised totally of teams from Division 2 with Sean MacCumhaills, Glenfin, Naomh Muire and Malin in the mix. Two of the managers – Damian Devaney of MacCumhaills and Glenfin’s Liam Ward – talk about their prospects.

Also in this clip is Group D’s preview. Naomh Conaill are the holders of Dr Maguire. Club chairman Danny McGeehin has brought the Cup with him tonight. Naomh Conaill are in with Termon, Gaoth Dobhair and Four Masters in Group D. McGeehin, former Naomh Conaill and Donegal player John Gildea and Termon selector Pauic Hilfery look ahead:

There’s always a ‘Group of Death’ isn’t there? This year, that title is bestowed on Group B, which contains St Eunan’s, St Michael’s, Kilcar and Killybegs. New St Eunan’s manager David McGinley and St Michael’s Chairman Liam McElhinney take a look:
