Keighley Cougars are delighted to confirm that Waldimar Matahwa will remain at Cougar Park for the 2027 season!
Waldo adds another option out wide as Matt Bramald and Ryan Jackson continue building their squad for the year ahead.
His rugby journey has included Siddal, Warrington Wolves’ scholarship programme, Huddersfield Giants’ academy and Bradford Bulls’ academy and reserves, alongside student rugby with Leeds Beckett.
Now he has the opportunity to build on his time at Keighley, compete for a regular place and make his mark in a new-look Cougars side.
🗣️ Matt Bramald:
“We’re pleased to have Waldo with us for next season. There’s a real opportunity for him here, and we’re looking forward to working with him and helping him develop. We want him to back himself, compete for his place and show what he can bring to the team.”
🗣️ Richard Dibbin:
“Waldo made it clear he wanted to stay at Keighley, and it’s been a pleasure getting everything agreed with him. We’re delighted to keep him on board and give him the opportunity to be part of what we’re building for 2027.”
Looking forward to seeing you back in Cougars colours, Waldo! 👏
