Courteney raring to go again Posted: 6:16 pm April 15, 2021

Courteney Murphy will continue as Fermanagh ladies captain for the 2021 season. Murphy was captain last December when Fermanagh won the All Ireland Junior title against Wicklow, but the Kinawley woman was ruled out of that game through injury but delivered a passionate and memorable speech as she lifted the cup in Croke Park, on that momentous day.
Devenish player Aisling Maguire and Murphy’s fellow club player, Joanne Doonan will be joint vice captains for the 2021 season. Murphy took over the captaincy from Doonan in 2019 after she left for Australia to play for Carlton in the AFLW, and admits she had “big boots to fill” but is delighted that the management have put their faith in her once again.
