Dicksboro GAA juvenile chairman Fergal Murphy joined us recently on Scoreline to look back on a season that brought with it the Under 15, Minor, and Under 19 county titles.

The Under 19 final brought a six-point win against James Stephens again. While the under-15’s, the Dicksboro team was once again successful against The Village at the final stage. Speaking of the minor final, Fergal outlined how much that victory meant to the club;
