Walker signs new one-year deal

Correspondent

Bradford have today announced that centre Chev Walker has signed a new 12-month contract with the club.

Walker joined the club from Hull KR last year, made his comeback against Crusaders yesterday after recovering from a broken foot.

The centre is delighted to sign a new deal “I’ve counted every day that I’ve been out and am absolutely delighted to have signed again. I’ve loved the place since I arrived and felt welcome from day one, so I’m thrilled to be here again next season and to be part of the club’s future.  

“Missing so much of my first year at the club has been really frustrating but the fans and the club have eased the pain of not being able to play.”

Coach Mick Potter is glad to have the player on board for next season:

“Chev brings so much professionalism to the club.  He has a fantastic work ethic and is very versatile – he can play back row, centre, I could even throw him on the wing if we were really struggling with injuries.

“He’s got the ability to put big hits in and to break the line, he’s solid in defence, and that’s what you want from your edge players.”
