Hull KR have handed new long-term contracts to Matty Marsh, Kieran Moran and Joe Wardill.
The 20-year-old half-back, Marsh, who has started six of their last seven Super League matches, has signed a new deal keeping him at the club until the end of 2018, with an option for a further 12 months.
Teenagers Wardill and Moran both made their senior debuts this season, and have now signed their first professional contracts and will join the first-team squad on a full-time basis.
Wardill, 17, has signed a four-year deal while Moran, 18, has penned a three-year contract.
Rovers head of rugby Jamie Peacock said: "Matty, Joe and Kieran have shown already this season that they have the potential to be a big part of this club for a long time and we're delighted to secure their services for the foreseeable future.
"We have a plan in place in terms of how we want this club to develop over the next five years and a key part of that is retaining our best players and building a squad that can stay together for many years."
