Hull FC’s in-form winger Adam Swift has signed a two-year contract extension with the Black & Whites!
Swift, one of Betfred Super League’s stand-out performers so far in the 2021 campaign, extends his stay with the club until at least the end of the 2023 campaign.
The 28-year old, who joined the club from St Helens ahead of the start of the 2020 season, has scored 13 tries in 17 appearances, and currently sits third in the league’s try scoring charts with nine so far this season.
April and May’s KayGee Engineering Player of the Month has enjoyed some memorable performances, including braces against Leeds, Castleford and Leigh on the road.
The winger’s new deal ensures that Brett Hodgson’s back-division remains strong going into the 2022 campaign, alongside the likes of Carlos Tuimavave and Mahe Fonua.
Speaking on the decision to extend his contract with the club, Swift said: “I’m loving my time here at the club, and I’m playing some of my best rugby in 2021, so the decision to extend my contract was an absolute no-brainer for me.
“2020 was a tough first season for me with my various injuries, but this year has been like a fresh start and I’ve found a new lease of life out on the field, and I feel my performances have reflected that.
“We’ve got a great bunch of lads here and a new coach who is implementing some really great ideas, and I think we’ve started laying the foundations for something special – it’s a team I undoubtedly want to continue to be a part of.
He added: “I’ve got my own little family here in Hull now, and they’re really happy and settled here, and that made the decision a lot easier for me.”
Hull FC head coach Brett Hodgson, added:
“I’m really happy with Adam’s form this season. He has applied himself extremely well and is getting the rewards through his performances.
“He had the ability to play a number of positions which we saw against Wigan in the Challenge Cup, which benefits both himself and us as a team.
“I’m looking forward to seeing Swifty continue his form and get the success he deserves.”
