12th August 2009 12:59PM

The Waikato Rugby Union is pleased to announce that speedster Sitiveni Sivivatu re-signed with the Union yesterday.

Sivivatu is one of a number of key players who have recently re-signed with the WRU. Others include centre Richard Kahui, first five-eighth Stephen Donald, loose forward Liam Messam, hooker Aled de Malmanche and locks Toby Lynn and Romana Graham. Earlier in the year the WRU also re-signed fullback Mils Muliaina.

All of the above mentioned players have signed contracts until the end of 2011.

Waikato Rugby Union Chief Executive Graham Bowen said: "it is great news for our province to have key players staying in the region. We are a provincial union that prides itself on nurturing its players and progressing their rugby careers to the highest levels."

"This group of players is critical to Waikato rugby, the Chiefs and the New Zealand Rugby Union. It is pleasing to see a number of them having come through the Waikato academy and talent identification programmes."
