Davy Fitzgerald, the renowned hurling coach, has officially announced his resignation from his role as the Waterford hurling manager. The decision comes after a two-year stint with the team, during which Fitzgerald worked tirelessly to lead the Deise to success.

Fitzgerald's departure marks the end of an era for Waterford hurling, with the Chairperson of Waterford GAA expressing gratitude for Fitzgerald's dedication and hard work over the past two years. The 52-year-old coach, known for guiding Clare to an All-Ireland triumph in 2013, leaves behind a legacy of determination and passion for the sport.

Having had another year left on his contract, Fitzgerald's decision to step down has left fans and the hurling community in shock. His experience and success, including leading Waterford to the All-Ireland Final in 2008, made him a respected figure in the world of hurling management. Despite this, the team's inability to progress beyond the Munster championship led to this unexpected turn of events.

In the wake of Fitzgerald's resignation, Waterford will now be on the lookout for a new manager to lead them to future victories and championships. The legacy left by Fitzgerald will undoubtedly influence the team's future strategies and performance on the field.
