Academy graduates Sam Latus and Richard Beaumont have agreed new two-year contracts with Hull KR.

Latus, 21, has made 11 appearances this season while 23-year-old Beaumont made his Robins debut in April of this year after recovering from a career threatening injury.

Rovers chief executive Mike Smith believes that the re-signing of Latus and Beaumont highlights how committed the club are to developing home-grown talent at New Craven Park.

"Sam and Richard are both players to come through our Academy structure and break into the first team so we're very pleased that they have chosen to continue their development at Craven Park," Smith told the club's official website.

"At the core of next year's squad is already a large number of players from the city and many of which we have nurtured as a club."

Rovers are currently ninth in the Engage Super League table.
