Recruitment news is brought to you by The Bed Shop Superstore Pontefract!

The Tigers youngster has shown encouraging signs over the past 18 months here at the Tigers and the club can't wait to see him in Cas colours for the next 5 years!

After making his debut at the end of 2023 Rooney has gone on to make several Super League appearances. A prouduct of the Tigers Scholarship, College and Academy pathways we have seen Rooney develop into a real talent.

We caught up with Danny Wilson, Director of Rugby Operations who said: 

“We’re delighted Fletch has signed this new deal. He’s a great lad, he’s been through every level of this club and knows what it means to play for Cas and represent the shirt. He’s young, but asks all the right questions and always wants to improve and that’s the DNA of player we are committed to bringing through the ranks. I know the coaching team love working with him and he is a big part of our plans for the future of this club.”

Fletch, fresh off a headline grabbing and try scoring appearance in Round 1, said:

“I’m really happy to agree this deal. I’m in my 5th year at the club, I’ve worked hard at every level to be where I am today and I’m ambitious about the future. I want to keep improving and contributing to a Cas team that’s competing and challenging. Working with Danny Mags every day is great, to be able to learn from the best is brilliant for me on my journey and under the new management team and the lads in the squad I think we are in a solid position to really drive the club forward over the next few years.”
