York Knights have signed up one of their most promising forwards to a long-term deal, with Oli Field extending his stay at the club until the end of 2029.
Field, who was already contracted to the club until 2027, made 28 appearances for Mark Applegarth’s side and performed incredibly well in his maiden Super League season.
Scoring six tries, the back-rower who can also play centre began his career at the Leeds Rhinos, coming through their pathways system.
Failing to make a first-team appearance, Field arrived at York on loan in 2023, and he has been at the club ever since, signing a permanent deal part-way through that season.
The 24-year-old has made over 100 appearances for the club, and will continue to be a key part of Applegarth’s roster as the club head into only their second top-flight season of the summer era.

Boss Applegarth added: “I’m delighted with that. Oli has done really well in Super League. He’s relatively young and I think he’s got his best rugby in front of him.
“He became a real staple of our team this year as well as last, and now he’s filling out that frame of his, and he’s showing everyone what he can do. I think he’s going to be really good.”
