“Firstly, I’m delighted to commit to Cardiff. This genuinely is a club that I’ve got a real affinity to,” Sherratt said.
“I love going to work every day. The players and the staff are great, it’s a great group, and I think our fans are unbelievable as well – just look at the attendances we’ve had last season and this season.
“To sign a longer term deal, and as importantly, or more importantly in a lot of ways, is the rest of the coaching staff signing deals as well.
“I see us as a coaching team. For myself and the other coaches to try and stay together and try to build to make Cardiff is so pleasing.”
Sherratt says his three-match Six Nations stint with Wales will have multiple benefits.
“As an example, an Evan Lloyd or a Cam Winnett, coming into Welsh camp and playing at the highest intensity, under the most pressure, hopefully when they come back to the club game, they feel that little bit more confident.
“So I’m hoping there’s some learning for me there as well. Obviously, working with the best players, coaching against the best teams, coaching with some of the best coaches, it can only be good for my long-term development, and in turn, that’s good for Cardiff.”
