Joe Baldwin has brought the curtain down on his six-year tenure as Fermanagh hurling manager.

The Coleraine man led the Erne County to a Lory Meagher Cup final victory over Longford last year, just a few months after suffering a stroke. Indeed, he was back on the sideline within three weeks of doctors discovering a small blood clot at the back of his head after he began to slur his speech in work.

Baldwin also guided Fermanagh to a number of league promotions and raised the county team’s profile during his time at the helm.
