Huddersfield Giants have signed Canberra Raiders hooker Zac Woolford on a one-year deal for 2025.

The 28-year-old is the son of former Giants head coach Simon Woolford, who had two years in West Yorkshire between 2018 and 2020.

"I’m stoked to get it all done. I’ve been in talks for a few weeks now so I’m glad it’s all done and signed," he told the club website.

"I’m following in the footsteps here in Canberra of my dad and now moving on to a club he’s previously been involved in, and he’s really happy for me."
