KEIGHLEY Cougars have today confirmed the signing of former Bulls trialist Charlie Martin for next season from the recently-relegated Hunslet Hawks.

Martin, a second-rower, is no stranger to Cougar Park having featured six times for the club during a dual-registration stint from the Castleford Tigers in 2013.

However, he failed to break into the Tigers’ first-team upon his return to The Jungle and was released at the end of that season.

He spent the 2014 season with the Batley Bulldogs prior to joining the Hawks midway through this year following a spell on trial with the Bulls.
