North Wales have confirmed that Earl Hurst has signed a deal with the club for the 2019 season.

Hurst spent the second half of the 2018 season loan from Rochdale Hornets and he has now made the move to Queensway Stadium on a permanent deal.

The centre came through the ranks at Wigan Warriors, before returning to his community club Wigan St Cuthberts before joining Wigan St Patricks.

North Wales picked Hurst up from St Pats, where he spent a season before joining the Hornets, going on to play 14 games. He has now returned to Wrexham and will stay there for next season.
