Trinity secure Pratt until the end of 2031
14 Nov 2026
Oliver Pratt has signed a new five-year deal with Wakefield Trinity that will keep him at the club until at least the end of the 2031.
The incredibly talented winger has been a huge hit in the Red, White and Blue since making his debut at the end of the 2023 season following a successful Academy career at Trinity.
Still only 22-years old, Pratt has appeared 77 times for Wakefield so far scoring 38 tries in the process. His fruitful 2026 campaign saw him score 15 times in 15 games with hamstring injuries curtailing his end to the season and seeing him miss a large chunk of the year only appearing once after June.
The Heworth junior broke out in the 2024 Championship season with Wakefield walking away with Championship Young Player of the Year after 18 tries in 34 games.
The talented back has made the successful switch over to wing after starting his career at centre in 2026, but his versatility only adds to a talent group that has exciting players like Corey Hall, Davy Litten, Jayden Myers as well as International Tom Johnstone.
On his new contract, Oliver Pratt said: “I’m buzzing to get my future secured for the next five years. I’ve been here all of my career and the past few years have been incredible and it’s truly unbelievable to see how far we have come. Having missed out at the back end of the year through injury this long term deal gives me the opportunity to play in the big finals to come."
Head Coach Daryl Powell said: “I’m delighted that Olly has agreed to extend his contract. He showed when he was on the field last year how much quality he has in his game. He is a young athletic outside back with the best years ahead of him. Alongside that, I love his attitude to compete for everything that he does, I’m looking forward to continuing working with him to help him achieve his rich potential.”
Director of Rugby, Ste Mills said: “I’m absolutely delighted that Oliver has committed his future to the club for another five years. He is an important part of what we are building, both on and off the pitch, and securing his long-term future is a real statement of our ambition. We’re looking forward to seeing him continue to develop and play a big role in the club’s future.”
