Connacht have signed up six promising young players on senior contracts for rugby's resumption.
The six contracts all come from players making the step up for the Academy. Niall Murray, Jordan Duggan, Colm Reilly, Sean Masterson - younger brother of current Connacht player Eoghan - Conor Dean and Peter Sullivan are the six players who will be in the squad for next season.
Connacht head coach Andy Friend says he's a firm believer that a club’s lifeline is its Academy structure, "and this exciting group of young players proves that the Connacht Academy is extremely healthy, and will continue to have a positive impact on our squad going forward”.
