Hunslet Hawks have confirmed that several players have signed one-year contracts for the club for the 2016 season.

George Flanagan, Michael Haley, Mathew Tebb, Danny Ansell and Nathan Darby have all inked new deals.

“We are delighted that the lads have put pen to paper on new contracts,” said Hawks director of rugby.

“It shows their commitment to the club that they have stayed on to try and get the club back up next season.

“We are under no illusion in terms of the test that awaits us in League One, it is going to be a major challenge for us, so its vitally important that we continue to strengthen the squad both with new players as well as retaining key players from last season’s squad.

“We have made a good start in terms of building our squad for 2016, and I’m happy where we are at the minute.”
