About Iarfhlaith Davoren

Iarfhlaith began his playing career with Tullamore Town before the famed Belvedere Boys came looking for his services. But travelling to Dublin became problematic so he found himself plying his trade with Willow Park Boys FC in the Athlone and District Schoolboy League. The schoolboy club is noted for producing players for Athlone Town and Davoren became another name on the list when he signed at St. Mel's Park, making his first team debut against Dundalk in July 2004, at the age of 17.

Iarfhlaith signed for Galway United in 2006 but made just three league appearances over the next eighteen months, signing for Longford Town in 2008. His stay at Flancare was short and in July 2008 he returned to Galway United.

In January 2010 he moved up the coast, signing for Paul Cook at Sligo Rovers where he won his first senior silverware as the club beat Monaghan United to win the 2010 EA Sports Cup. Iarfhlaith also played in Sligo's 2010 and 2011 FAI Cup winning teams, as well as winning his first league title when the Bit O' Red topped the Premier Division in 2012.
