Connacht trio sign new deals

Connacht have announced contract extensions for Shayne Bolton, Colm Reilly and Dominic Robertson-McCoy.

Utility back Bolton has signed for the 2023/24 season. Born in South Africa but Irish-qualified through his grandmother, he has made five appearances for the club since joining in the summer of 2021.

Scrum-half Reilly has renewed his contract for two years.

The Ballinasloe made his debut coming off the bench away to Edinburgh in October 2020, the first of 17 caps so far for Connacht.

He was also a member of the Grand Slam-winning Ireland U20 squad of 2019.

Robertson-McCoy joined the province in June 2016 as an Irish-qualified tighthead, arriving from Northland in New Zealand.

Since then he has made 77 appearances, becoming one of the longest serving props in the squad. He has signed a one-year deal.
