Waterford GAA has thanked Stephen for his fantastic service to Waterford Hurling over the last 10 years.
The 29-year-old has been Waterford's first-choice goalkeeper since 2012.
He went on to win an All-Star in 2017 and most recently produced a stunning double save in the first half of the All Ireland final to deny Limerick an opening goal.
