 Meyer was appointed by Leicester in June 2008
|
Heyneke Meyer has resigned as Leicester coach due to personal reasons.
The 41-year-old went home to South Africa in December when his wife's parents were taken ill, and has now told the club he will not be returning.
Tigers chairman Peter Tom said: "It is with deep regret that we accept his resignation. It was a tough situation.
"He had the club's full support to stay as long as necessary but being an honourable man he felt it unfair on both parties to carry on indefinitely."
Richard Cockerill will continue to head the coaching team, supported by Matt O'Connor and Paul Burke.
