Warrington Wolves young forward Andrew Bracek, 20 and hooker Mark Gleeson, 25, have committed their futures to the Club.
Bracek has committed until 2010 while Gleeson, has signed a one year extension.
Bracek says he has gained experience from training and playing alongside Adrian Morley and has shown consistency in the U21s, with his first grade experience showing through.
A Former England Academy second rower with superb footwork, Bracek made eleven Super League appearances for the Wolves in 2006, scoring his first Super League try. Originally involved with Wigan's development squad after signing from Leigh Miners, he joined St Helens in 2003 and made his Super League debut at prop against Bradford in the final league game of the 2004 season. He was part of England Academy's successful tour of New Zealand and Australia in 2004 and joined the Wolves in a £22,500 deal in time for the 2005 season. Andy has made 2(9) appearances this season scoring a try against Salford in Round 8, and since his debut has made 2 (28) scoring 2 tries.
Bracek said: "I have enjoyed my time so far with the club and I am breaking into the first grade now and I can see so much potential here for myself and the club in the future with the new signings for next season.
"I think this season is shaping up for an exciting finale and I am looking forward to being part of that and scoring more tries….let’s see if I can get in to double figures this year!"
Head Coach Paul Cullen: "We are delighted that another of our young players have committed their futures to the Warrington Wolves. There has already been a considerable investment in time and effort from all parties and we look forward to that potential being fully realised."
Meanwhile by committing to another season Gleeson will continue playing alongside brother Martin for the engage Super League XIII season and it will see two sets of brothers at the Wolves with Louis Anderson on his way to join Vinnie.
Mark joined the Academy in 1999 and has made 34(79) appearances at first grade to date scoring 12 tries.
He commented: "I am delighted to be given the opportunity to continue my career at the Wolves. It is certainly an exciting time. I am Looking ahead to next season and looking forward to playing alongside Matt King. He is a talented player who I think can bring a lot to the Wolves line up along with Hicks, Monaghan and Anderson.”
Cullen added: "We are delighted that another of our young players have committed their futures to the Warrington Wolves. There has already been a considerable investment in time and effort from all parties and we look forward to that potential being fully realised."
