O'Doherty first came to Gaelic games prominence as a student at St Patrick's College in Maghera, winning consecutive MacRory Cup titles and a Hogan Cup title in 2013.[2] He joined the Slaughtneil senior hurling and football teams. Since his debut as a dual player, he won six Ulster Club Championship titles and 13 County Championship titles across both codes. O'Doherty first appeared on the inter-county scene during a three-year tenure with the Derry minor team, before later winning an Ulster Championship title with the under-21 team.[3] He was drafted onto the Derry senior hurling team in 2017 and won a Nicky Rackard Cup in his debut season.[4]
