Cian McDermott

Ballinagh would like to extend our congratulations all the way to Canada to our own Cian McDermott who managed St Vincent’s to Toronto Senior Championship glory in the past week. Cian, a son of Robbie and Siobhan, played football with Ballinagh up until his early to mid-20’s winning Intermediate and Ulster Intermediates championships at midfield with Ballinagh before moving to Australia and then settling in Canada. It’s great to see Cian bring the winning mentality with him.
