Alexander Cox steps down ahead of Olympic qualifiers

Alexander Cox has resigned as Irish senior men’s head coach nine weeks out from the Olympic qualifiers following the side’s relegation from the top tier of the European Championships for the first time since 2009.
It concludes a tough spell for the side with the Dutchman taking on the role just over a year ago, taking over the reins from Craig Fulton who left the job for a role with Belgium who have subsequently gone on to win World Cup and European titles.
