Niall Rigney has resigned as manager of the Laois Senior Hurling team after two years in charge.
A statement on the county’s website read;
“Niall Rigney has announced his resignation as Laois Senior Hurling Manager. Laois GAA would like to acknowledge the huge contribution he has made to Laois Hurling over the past two seasons.
“As a player he hurled with a distinct pride and passion in the County jersey and these were attributes he brought to the Laois team during his managerial tenure.
“Further credit to his management is that he had all the best players he required available to hurl with the County, working extremely hard in changing attitudes and developing a specific style of play.
“The commitment and work of management team PJ Peacock and Bro. Phil Ryan is also deserving of thanks for their huge endeavours.
“Coiste Iomán meet with Clubs next Thursday week to review all aspects and structures of Laois Hurling, whereby opinions will be atken on board by Coiste Bainistà who will decide following this meeting on the process of appointing a new management structure.”
Laois were defeated 1-19 to 3-12 by Carlow last weekend.
