Roscommon are on the lookout for a new under-21 football manager following the decision of Mark Dowd to step down from the position.

At the June meeting of the Roscommon County Board, delegates were informed that Dowd did not want to be considered for the role in 2017.

Dowd completed two years in charge of the side during which time he guided them to Connacht glory in 2015.

This year saw the Rossies lose out to Mayo in the provincial decider with their opponents going on to lift the All-Ireland title.

The search will begin in the coming weeks for a successor as the county bid to continue their good record at this level.
