Playing career
Inter-county
In 2000, when Derry won the Ulster Minor Championship, Diver made a late substitute appearance in the All-Ireland Minor semi-final against Cork.[1] That game was shrouded in controversy, because a Cork player who was sent-off did not leave the field of play.[1] Diver did not play Under 21 football with Derry as he was traveling in the United States.[1]
Diver was first called up to the Derry Senior football panel in November 2005 for the 2006 season by Paddy Crozier.[2] He made his competitive Derry debut on 8 January 2006 against Monaghan in that year's Dr McKenna Cup.[3] His Championship debut came that year in a six-point victory over Tyrone at the age of 24.[1]
He was part of the Derry team that won the 2008 National League where Derry beat Kerry in the final.[4][5]
Diver played at midfield on the Derry team that reached the 2011 Ulster Senior championship final, and was made Vice Captain of Derry for 2012 season.Template:Fact
