Anthony Cunningham steps down as St. Brigid’s boss

St. Brigid’s highlighted that Cunningham — in his second spell — had guided the senior men’s footballers to a couple of O’Rourke Cup successes, alongside last year’s county and provincial championship triumphs.

St. Brigid’s GAA Club has confirmed that Anthony Cunningham has stepped down as manager of the club’s senior football team.

The former Roscommon football and hurling manager was in charge of the Kiltoom-based side for two seasons, taking over from Jerome Stack in 2024 and leading Brigid’s to the 2025 Roscommon and Connacht titles, before falling agonisingly short against Dingle in a thrilling All-Ireland club football final in Croke Park earlier this month.
