Back row stalwart Josh Lynam could play a key role in the next month for Keighley as they head into the Betfred League 1 play-offs.

And the club confirmed last night that the 31-year-old has signed a one-year contract extension through to the end of 2025, taking him into a 16th season at Cougar Park.

Keighley’s interim head coach/director of rugby Jake Webster said: "Josh is no nonsense and ever reliable.

“His worth ethic is right up there and I am delighted he is staying around this group.

“He is an asset to not only the club, but the town of Keighley."
