CAPTAIN Liam Harris has signed a new two-year deal with York Knights.
Harris has made 149 appearances in a York shirt, having been a permanent part of their side for the last five seasons following two prior loan spells.
He cemented his place in club history by captaining the side to victory at Wembley in the 1895 Cup Final in 2025, kicking the winning drop-goal in extra time against Featherstone Rovers and picking up the Ray French Player of the Match award.
Injury limited his appearances in 2026, but he scored six tries in twelve games, enjoying a strong end to the Knights’ first season in Super League.
Harris, who previously made one appearance for Hull KR and eleven for Hull FC alongside spells at Doncaster and Halifax Panthers, said: “I still have a lot that I want to achieve here.
“With the new ownership (led by David Dickson), the club are building something special and I can’t wait to be a part of that.”
York head coach Mark Applegarth added: “It was a difficult year for him last year, transitioning back into Super League and then picking up an injury.
“I’m delighted we’ve agreed a deal and Liam can show everyone what he can do.”
Harris’ contract extension follows the signings earlier this week of forward pair Brad Fash and Ronan Michael.
