Urris have been crowned the 2026 Donegal Junior A Football champions after defeating Na Rossa at O’Donnell Park in Letterkenny.

Urris then pulled ahead, taking the lead by a point before Luke Doherty scored from two‑point range, looping the ball over the Na Rossa keeper into the net.

In injury time Urr1is added three more points, securing a seven‑point victory to claim the title.
