Bath Rugby have received a major boost ahead of their Heineken Cup back-to-back encounters with Ulster after four players extended their contracts with the club.
David Wilson, 25 and Stuart Hooper, 29, both signed three-year contracts, Nathan Catt, 22, a two-year contract and Andy Beattie, 32, a one-year extension.
All four players played in the two previous Pool Four encounters against Biarritz Olympique and Aironi Rugby earlier this year.
"We are very pleased that these players have signed to stay with us, " said Bath head coach Steve Meehan.
"They are all integral members of the squad and provide us with continuity and growth. They have a lot more to give in a Bath Rugby shirt."
Bath currently lie second in the pool just one point ahead of Ulster, who they face in crucial back-to-back games in the lead up to the festive period.
The game will be of major significance to Beattie who will be aiming to make amends for picking up a red card against the same team in the opeing round of the pool stages last season.
