Fermanagh Ladies Football captain Courteney Murphy remains hopeful that she will be fit to lead her side out against Wicklow in Saturday’s TG4 All-Ireland Junior Championship Final.

To date Murphy, 23, has only played an hour of Fermanagh’s Championship campaign after injuring her hand just after half-time of their opening round game – also against Wicklow – but after watching from the sidelines as her side got back to winning ways, she is determined to play some part at Parnell Park.
