Mickey Harte has been granted a two-year extension to his contract as Tyrone manager.
Harte's current deal was due to run out at the end of next year's Championship.
His request to stay on to at least the end of the 2012 season was unanimously ratified by the Tyrone County Board on Tuesday night.
The Red Hands boss has been in charge since 2003 and has won three All-Ireland titles with Tyrone.
