McErlain, who’ll take charge of the Oak Leaf seniors in 2018, has named the same starting 15 from their semi-final win over Dublin as Derry compete in their first final at this grade for 11 years.

Lorcan McWilliams starts at full-forward while his twin brother Oisin lines out at midfield.

In the only change for Kerry, Jack Griffin of Dr Crokes comes in at full forward in place of Donnchadh O’Sullivan.

The Kingdom, who are looking to win their fourth title at this grade in succession, are skippered by prodigy David Clifford.
