McCall extends Ulster contract
- 1274
Rising star Kyle McCall has committed his future to Ulster Rugby by
signing a two-year extension to his current deal, keeping him at
Kingspan Stadium until 2019.
The 24-year-old has enjoyed an outstanding season, which was recognised at the Heineken Ulster Rugby Awards Dinner earlier this month when he collected the BT Young Player of the Year award.
"I've thoroughly enjoyed coming through the system at Ulster Rugby. Personally, this season has been particularly pleasing because I have played a lot more than I expected to," said McCall commenting on the signing.
The loosehead prop made his Ulster debut against Leinster in March 2013 and made three further appearances before earning his first start, against Dragons in November last year. He then went on to start five of Ulster's six Champions Cup games, scoring his first senior try in the dramatic 23-24 away win over Oyonnax.
