Former Derry star Conleith Gilligan has brought the curtain down on his football career.
Gilligan, who will turn 39 in December, made his Ulster SFC debut for the Oak Leafers against Cavan in 2000 and went on to play for 13 seasons, during which he won two Allianz League medals. The busy forward, who actually began his career as a goalkeeper, has been a maintstay of the Ballinderry senior team for the last 20 years and was a central figure in their numerous Derry and Ulster club SFC successes.
His last appearance for the Shamrocks came in their county SFC quarter-final loss to Glen last month.
It's been an honour to represent @BallinderryGAC but the end has to come some time, thanks to everyone involved for the special memories and great days! It wasn't a bad run for a failed goalie #shamrocks
