Connacht Rugby have announced that scrum-half Caolin Blade and winger Matt Healy have both signed two-year contract extensions that will keep them at the Sportsground until the end of the 2021/22 season.
Blade has made 109 appearances for the province while Healy is Connacht’s record try scorer with 55 in 136 appearances.
“Caolin Blade and Matt Healy are two important players for us and are central to our ambitions over the coming seasons,” said Head Coach Andy Friend to Connacht Rugby’s official website.
“Caolin has come through the
Connacht pathway and has proven himself to be a top class player who brings
huge energy to our attack.
“Matt Healy is another exciting player who has an excellent try scoring record in the Connacht jersey, and I think there is still more to come from him. We are delighted that both players have committed to the province for the next two seasons.”
