Terry Hyland has stepped down as the Leitrim Senior Football manager.

The Cavan native spent three years in charge where he guided them to League promotion and a Division 4 final in 2019.

Hyland's time at Leitrim comes to an end in the wake of Sunday's 24-point defeat at the hands of Mayo in the Connacht Championship.

In a statement, Leitrim county board thanked Hyland for his efforts and acknowledged the challenges posed in the “most difficult 16 months in living memory.”
