Meath LGFA have announced that Jenny Rispin will take over as the County Senior ‘Interim Manager’ for the remainder of the 2023 season.

Last weekend Davy Nelson and his backroom team stepped down after just eight months in charge of back-to-back All-Ireland ladies football champions.

The former inter county star also filled that void vacated by Diane O’Hora in 2016.

Meath LGFA would like to announce that after an intense few days of discussions, Jenny Rispin of Summerhill LGFA will take on the reigns of our County Senior team as “Interim Manager’ for the remainder of the 2023 season.
