Ex-Leeds Rhinos forward secures his future at Super League club

Salford Red Devils have announced that Jack Ormondroyd has signed a new three-year contract, keeping him at the Club until 2025.

Following on from various important contract renewals in the off-season, our number eight is the latest to commit his long-term future to the Red Devils.

Ormondroyd’s personal game has been taken to new levels under the tutelage of Paul Rowley in the past 12 months and he’ll continue to play a vital role across 2023 and beyond.

On top of his incredible tenacity and work-rate in the front line, the prop scored four Betfred Super League tries across 2022 – perhaps typifying the brand of rugby league Rowley and his staff have developed in such a short time.

Off the field, Ormondroyd has become a real leader within the group; someone who multiple young forwards at the Club have name-checked when asked who is always open for advice.

Reacting to his new deal, Ormondroyd said: “I am really happy to be staying at Salford for another couple of years.

“I’ve enjoyed my time here so far; we’ve got a great set of lads. Hopefully we can have another good year and do something special!”

Head Coach, Paul Rowley added: “It’s fantastic news that Jack is staying with the Club. He continues to work hard in everything he does and typifies the qualities and core values of the group.

“He’s fantastic to coach and a real leader within the group so his retention is another example of the clubs commitment to the succession of the team and therefore a real positive for our club.”

Director of Rugby and Operations, Ian Blease has also said: “It is incredible news that Jack is extending his stay with the Red Devils.

“Since joining the Club in 2020, his improvement – under the guidance of Paul Rowley and his staff – has been a joy to watch. His presence and voice in the dressing room is vital – especially for our young players – so I’m delighted he’ll be able to continue that going forward.

“After some other vital contract extensions in the off-season, I can’t wait for the season to kick-off on Friday and see what this team can achieve!”
