John Evans has stepped down as the manager of the Wicklow senior football team.
The Kerry native had been in the job for two years, and managed the county to one of their three Leinster championship victories in this decade.
That was an extra-time win against Offaly in 2018.
"Having completed my two-year term as Wicklow Senior Football Manager, I will not be putting my name forward and seeking another term," he said in a statement released through Wicklow GAA.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank my Management team, players, Clubs, all Wicklow media and the County Board for their support in these challenging times. I wish one and all in Wicklow GAA the very best going forward."
This season proved to be disappointing for the Garden County. After managing three victories from seven Allianz League Division 4 games, Wicklow were knocked out of the Leinster championship by Kildare at Netwatch Cullen Park.
They were then beaten by fellow-Division 4 side Leitrim in the first round of the qualifiers.
"Wicklow GAA wish to sincerely thank John Evans for his hard work, dedication and commitment over the past two years as Wicklow Senior Football Manager," the county board said in a statement.
"John and his management team have brought great professionalism and huge enthusiasm to their roles and have worked tirelessly for the greater good and development of Wicklow.
"County Chairman Martin Fitzgerald has expressed his thanks to John on behalf of Wicklow GAA and wished him the very best for the future."
