The evening, held in the City Hotel on Saturday night, was the latest in a series of events celebrating 125 years of the Derry GAA.

Led captain Henry Downey, the players made their way into the room to rapturous applause and a standing ovation.

Professor Craig Mahoney, sports psychologist to the champions 20 years ago, was re-united with the players on an evening which also included special guests, Peter Quinn (Iar-Uachtaráin CLG), 1993 All-Ireland final referee Tommy Howard and Martin McAviney, President Ulster GAA.

A secondary standing ovation  was given following the recitation of “Eamon Coleman – a Derry Idol,” written and read by Seamus McRory in tribute to the late manager of the 1993 team.
