Fermanagh GAA has revealed that their senior county managers for football and hurling will remain in place for the 2023 season.
The August County Committee meeting was held on Monday night with Kieran Donnelly (football) and Joe Baldwin (hurling) extending their terms with the Erne men.
Donnelly was handed the senior football reins just 11 months ago and there were signs of promise from a young squad as the team go through a transitional period with the departure of veterans like Eoin Donnelly, Barry Mulrone and the Cullen brothers, Lee and Che.

The team retained their Division Three status in the Allianz National League but the Ulster Championship preliminary round was a tough task against the defending All Ireland Champions Tyrone.
There was a positive start to the new Tailteann Cup as Fermanagh won their first round game away to Longford but lost out to neighbours Cavan.
Baldwin will continue for a fourth year in charge of the senior hurling team.
He lead the team to two Lory Meagher Cup finals, winning in 2021, an Allianz Hurling League Division 3B league title and Fermanagh also gained promotion earlier this year and retained Fermanagh’s Nickey Rackard status for 2023.
Elsewhere, Maurice McLaughlin will continue as manager of the U20 football team for a third year. Tony Collins and Raymond Johnston have informed the board that due to personal commitments they would not be in a position to continue in the role of joint management of the U17 minor football team in 2023.
It was also revealed last night that Mickey Graham will remain in charge of Cavan for a further two seasons, subject to ratification at the next county committee meeting.
Graham led Cavan to Ulster SFC success in 2020 while they reached the Tailteann Cup final this summer, where they lost to Westmeath.
Down also named their senior football boss for the year ahead, with Kilcoo star Conor Laverty set to take over from Mourne legend James McCartan.
