Castleford have handed a four-year contract extension to teenage forward Will Maher.
The 19-year-old Cumbria-born prop became the first player to graduate from the Rugby Football League's regional academy programme when he joined the Tigers in 2013.
Castleford coach Daryl Powell said: "Will has so much potential. His size and contingency to develop as a big powerful athlete is immense.
"He has improved considerably since making his debut last season and another pre-season is going to see him grow further as an athlete and as a rugby league player."
Maher, who has made five substitute appearances in Super League this season, will now stay with the Tigers until at least 2019.
