New deal: Tom Isaacs

The Ospreys have confirmed that 26-year-old Sevens World Cup winner Tom Isaacs has become the latest player to pen a new deal at the region.

Isaacs has committed to the Ospreys beyond the end of this season, putting pen to paper on a new contract that keeps him in Swansea until 2015.

Isaacs joined the Ospreys in 2009, and after injuries hampered his first year he has become an increasingly influential member of the squad.

"I'm delighted to sign up for another two years" said Isaacs, speaking to the Ospreys website.

"I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here so far. I know that I've learnt a lot over the last four years and I feel I'm still learning every day when I come to work at Llandarcy. There's a great set-up here with some fantastic coaches. I've got some great friends here, it's a place where I'm really happy to be.

"I had a difficult first year due to injuries but I had great support and I was able to put that behind me. Over the last three seasons, and the last 24 months in particular, I've been able to play a part in what the team is doing and it keeps getting better for me.

"I've had a good run this season, and that's something I've really enjoyed. Like I said, I'm still learning a hell of a lot, from the coaches and my team-mates, but if I keep working hard I can hopefully cement my place in the team over the next two years."
