The Waterford senior footballers are on the lookout for a new manager after Paul Shankey decided not to take the option of a third year at the helm.
Meath native Shankey led the Déise to a notable Munster Championship win over Tipperary in 2024, ending the county's wait of 14 years for a victory in the province
In a statement, Waterford GAA thanked Shankey for his contribution.
"We extend our sincere thanks to Paul for his commitment and service to Waterford football," they said.
"His contribution over the past two years has been valued, and we wish him every success in the
future."
The board confirmed that the process to appoint a new manager will now begin.
Waterford finished bottom of Division 4 this year, winning just one game. They then lost to Tipperary in the Munster quarter-final ahead of three defeats in the Tailteann Cup.
