Sleacht Néill confirm senior football manager for 2022

PAUL Bradley has been ratified for a third season as Sleacht Néill senior football manager, Gaelic Life can confirm.

Bradley, who won five Derry and three Ulster medals as a player, led the Emmet’s to the 2020 championship in his first season as manager.

He navigated their path back to the final last season where they were beaten by Glen.

Bradley has confirmed to Gaelic Life that he has yet to finalise his management team.

Reigning champions Glen are expected to ratify Malachy O’Rourke for a second season as manager.

Magherafelt have appointed Damian Barton and Brian McGuckin as their joint management duo to replace 2019 winning manager Adrian Cush.

Sleacht Néill hurlers are currently planning for an All-Ireland hurling semi-final later this month against the winners of the Munster final clash of Ballygunner and Kilmallock.
