Wales hopeful Hope signs new Dragons contract

Dragons scrum-half Che Hope has signed a contract extension to stay at Rodney Parade.

The 23-year-old's deal was due to expire in the summer and he has committed to at least another two years with the club.

Hope is having a strong season, with four tries in 10 appearances, and his exploits have put him on the radar of Wales head coach Steve Tandy.

"Che has got our attack flowing, particularly in the last block of games, and we're excited to see that impact in the years to come," said assistant coach Matt O'Brien.

"What is really pleasing is that Che still has a lot of growth in his game and we can now look forward to him to continuing to kick on with us in the seasons ahead."

Hope made his Dragons debut at Lions in 2022 and helped Newport RFC win Super Rygbi Cymru last year.
