Following a period of reflection after Monaghan’s early exit from the championship this year Malachy O’ Rourke has confirmed that he will continue as Monaghan GAA senior men’s manager for a 5^th successive season.

In his 4 years year in charge Monaghan have won the Allianz Division 2 and 3 Leagues and reached an Allianz Division 1 semi-final in 2015. They will play in Division 1 once again in 2017. They have also won two Ulster Championships in 2013 and 2015, reached the final in 2014 and narrowly missed out on a place this year following a semi-final replay defeat to Donegal. Malachy and his backroom team are looking forward to the challenges a new season will bring.
