Ten Bristol Bears players have extended their contracts with the Premiership club.
The league’s top points-scorer AJ MacGinty, hooker Gabriel Oghre and loosehead prop Jake Woolmore are among those to have penned new deals.
Bristol have made a strong start to the season with six wins from their first eight games and sit level at the top of the Premiership table with Bath.
And the club have delivered fans an early Christmas present with the announcement of 10 new contracts.
“We’re building a squad that can play the Bears way, with a mixture of guys that have been on the journey for a number of years and the addition of some quality international players,” said director of rugby Pat Lam.
“But the most exciting part is that we are bringing through a group of homegrown young players who have taken their opportunity through hard work and desire to do well for their community.”
The club has not revealed the length of the new contracts.
