The former England Lions Under 19s international also scored three tries while on loan at Swinton Lions during the second half of the season, featuring in their play-off final victory over Doncaster earlier this month. 

Formerly part of St Helens’ academy, the Warrington-born winger spent time with Leigh Centurions and Rochdale Hornets earlier in his career. 

On his decision to remain at the club, Holroyd said: “I’m very excited to be staying at Widnes. I’ve really enjoyed my time here so far, so it was an easy decision to make.

“I can’t wait to get back into pre-season training, have a big off-season and push for a starting spot in 2023. 

“There’s a really good group of lads in the changing room, so hopefully we can have a really good year and put ourselves into contention, come the end of the season.”
