As widely expected, the Fermanagh native will fill the hotseat vacated by the 2021 All-Ireland winning duo Feargal Logan and Brian Dooher.
O’Rourke arrives with a hugely impressive managerial CV, most recently guiding Derry’s Watty Grahams Glen to All-Ireland club glory in January.
Before that, he had a successful spell in charge of the Monaghan footballers, winning two Ulster senior championships, and steered Fermanagh to the provincial decider in 2008.
A long-time resident of Ballygawley in Tyrone, O’Rourke has also managed the local club Errigal Ciarán, along with Monaghan’s Tyholland and Derry’s The Loup.
He also enjoyed Tyrone championship glory as a player with Errigal Ciarán.
