As the Wicklow hurlers returned to training under Michael Neary, their search for a new Hurling Manager is continuing.
Willie Carley resigned from the post after just a year in charge but County Chairman, Mick O'Hagan said they will not be rushing into an appointment.
The present involvement of Neary in a temporary role means that O'Hagan wont be rushing into an appointment.
"We are not going to rush into it at the moment for the sake of appointing someone," said O'Hagan. "We are still seeking a Manager. We have a number of people in mind but I cannot mention names at the moment."
The team has returned to training and will be boosted for the league campaign by the availability of long serving forward Don Hyland.
Meanwhile Rathnew clubman Leighton Glynn will be honoured with the Footballer of the Year Award at the GAA Awards ceremony on January 28. Glenealy's Jonathan O'Neill is the Footballer of the Year.
