KINGSCOURT Stars have been boosted by the addition of Meath senior footballer Jordan Morris.

Morris, who played for the Cavan side as a youngster and currently lives in the area, has officially transferred to Kingscourt Stars, who lost the 2020 Senior Championship final after a replay.

Morris played a key role as Meath side Nobber won the Intermediate title in 2019 but has decided to switch his allegiance to Kingscourt.

It’s a major coup for Kingscourt ahead of the new season and completes what was a fairly protracted transfer saga. He is widely regarded as Meath’s best attacking footballer.

Meanwhile, Lacken have announced the appointment of Mickey O’Connor as their new senior men’s manager.

A native of Abbeylara, O’Connor has previous experience of management in Longford and Westmeath.
