Widnes Vikings half-back Tom Gilmore has signed a two-year extension to his contract that will keep him with the club until the end of 2018.
The 22-year-old, who has made 17 Super League appearances since making his debut in 2014, impressed during a loan spell with London Broncos last year.
“My plan has always been to stay at Widnes," Gilmore said. "My ambition is to become the first-choice scrum-half here and be a part of the club as it moves forward in the future.
“I am enjoying my time at my hometown club and look forward to developing my game over the next two years.”
Widnes coach Denis Betts added: "Tom is a really talented young man with a mature head on his shoulders and has huge potential to become a successful player here at Widnes.
"He has developed as a player since he graduated into the first-team squad and has now become a role model for the younger players in the squad to look to for advice.
"I am excited for what the future holds for Tom."
