Bennett has previously worked with Wexford, Waterford and Antrim and has also managed Ferns in Wexford.
Pat Bennett has been named the new Carlow senior hurling manager, subject to ratification.
Bennett has previously worked with Wexford, Waterford and Antrim, and most notably guided Ferns St. Aidan's to the Wexford Senior Hurling Championship title in 2022.
Carlow GAA Chairperson Jim Bolger welcomed the news, extending his best wishes to Bennett, his management team and the players, saying the county is looking forward to the next chapter of development under new leadership.
Bennett's arrival follows the departure of outgoing manager Tom Mullally, who stepped down last week after five highly successful years in charge.
