Fenagh St Caillins Donal Wrynn will captain the Leitrim Senior footballers for a second time with St Mary's Kiltoghert Mark Diffley as his vice-captain after Leitrim GAA announced the news on Tuesday afternoon.

Wrynn captained Leitrim in 2017 and will take over from David Bruen after the Leitrim Gaels clubman decided to take a year out to go travelling. The Fenagh St Caillins clubman was also vice-captain last year.

Mark Diffley from county champions St Mary's Kiltoghert takes over Wrynn's role as vice-captain for the 2023 season which gets underway next Friday evening, January 6, with a clash against reigning Connacht SFC & FBD Insurance League champions and All-Ireland finalists Galway.

The game gets underway at 7pm on Friday in the NUI Galway Connacht GAA Air Dome and any fans intending on travelling to the game are warned that there is a limited capacity and all tickets must be purchased online.
