IZZY Bibby has become the sixth York Valkyrie player in six days to sign a contract with the club ahead of the 2026 season.
The Valkyrie continue to build ahead of a new era under the coaching of Leon Pryce, having already tied down six players this week.
Tara Moxon, Liv Wood, Jas Bell and Emma Kershaw all signed contract extensions earlier in the week, whilst the Valks also added Australian Abbey Fuzz from Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs on Tuesday as their squad continues to take shape.
Bibby becomes the latest player to have penned an extended deal, agreeing a new two year contract after an impressive debut season with York.
The 23-year-old front-rower played 17 times for the Valkyrie in 2025, operating at both the 9 and on the wing as her versatility proved useful for Lindsay Anfield's side.
Dovetailing with captain Sinead Peach in the middle, Bibby quickly established herself as a key player for York, who finished 2025 in third spot of the Women's Super League.
It was an impressive first year for Bibby, who had arrived to the Valkyrie after a spell in the Army Rugby League, and a stint with league rivals Huddersfield Giants.
Bibby was also formerly in the England Knights Performance Squad, with a string of impressive displays also earning a call up to represent Yorkshire in the Origin Game last Autumn.
Speaking on the news of an extended contract, Bibby commented: "I’m buzzing to be re-signing with the Valks!
"My first year taught me so much and I can’t wait to build on it with this amazing group!"
