Chris Henry Signs Two-Year Deal With Ulster Rugby
Chris Henry has signed a new deal with Ulster Rugby.
The back-row forward has had his contract extended for another two years which means he will remain at Kingspan Stadium until June 2019.
In a statement posted on Ulster Rugby's website, Ulster's Director of Rugby, Les Kiss, said: "Chris has been a key player for Ulster Rugby for a number of years and he represents everything that is good about the organisation. His integrity, commitment, passion and good humour are contagious qualities that make him a fantastic person to have within our squad.
"He has been unfortunate with injuries and illness over the past couple of seasons but he has worked extremely hard to get back onto the pitch and I've no doubt that he'll be a massive asset for us over the next couple of seasons."
