Fermanagh senior Ultan Kelm is hoping that the county’s under-20s can do well in the Ulster championship.

On Friday night, Fermanagh meet Donegal in the Ulster U20 football championship quarterfinal at Brewster Park.

The Erne County will be backboned by senior stars like Kelm with their being a real excitement about this team.

Kelm burst onto the senior stage this year and had an outstanding campaign in both league and championship.

Now, he’s hoping to carry that form into the under-20 championship in a team that has numerous MacRory and Hogan Cup winners in it.

“We’d like to think we have a very strong team, we have five boys in the seniors and I think that’s brought us on leaps and bounds,” Kelm told the Fermanagh Herald.

“It’s not often as an underage Fermanagh team that you’re going in confident to a first round Ulster game. The way the St Michael’s team won the Hogan gives us confidence to believe we can compete in Ulster and indeed in Ireland.”
