Penrith Panthers is pleased to announce that Mavrik Geyer has re-signed with the club for a further two seasons.
The contract extension will see the 22-year-old forward remain at the Panthers until at least the end of the 2025 season.
Previously on an NRL development contract, the upgraded deal sees Geyer promoted to the Panthers NRL squad to complete the club’s top 30 for 2023.
A local junior, Geyer joined the club as a teenager and progressed from the club’s Harold Matthews and SG Ball sides to Jersey Flegg and NSW Cup – and has now secured an NRL top 30 contract.
“Re-signing with the club means everything to me. I’ve been here for the past two years training with the NRL squad and I’ve learnt so much already – hopefully I can start playing some NRL soon,” Geyer said.
“This club means so much to me. I’ve lived two minutes from here my whole life. It’s where my dad played, it’s where my uncle played. This club is a second home to me, it’s like family.”
Panthers Rugby League CEO Matt Cameron congratulated Geyer on his new contract.
“It’s always pleasing to see a local junior commit his future to the club and we’re all excited to see Mav remain in Panthers colours for the next two seasons,” Cameron said.
“Not only is Mav a great footballer, but he’s also an impressive young man who emulates the values we share at the Panthers.”
