PLAYER BIO
Shane, who can play in midfield or attacking roles, joined us in February 2019 from Rowan University, where he captained the side. He holds dual American and Irish citizenship.
While at Rowan, Doherty’s form earned him various accolades in college football, including being selected on the All South Atlantic Region First Team, the NJAC First Team All Conference and the NSCAA All America Second Team. Doherty is comfortable playing anywhere in the final third of the pitch.
Shane was an instant hit with the EDP faithful, but had to return to the USA midway through the 2019 season. So we were delighted to welcome him back when he was able to re-join us, as the league resumed in 2020 after the Covid lockdown.
