They're Back. Church and Keenan extend time in Saskatchewan

Jul 30, 2025

Saskatoon, SK - Saskatchewan Rush General Manager Derek Keenan announced contract extensions for tea Captain Ryan Keenan and all-time team points leader Robert Church today.  

“Both players were pending Unrestricted Free Agents. Not testing the market indicates their full commitment to the Rush and the Rush fanbase” said GM Derek Keenan. “With a relatively young core, their abilities and leadership are imperative to us achieving our ultimate goal. I’d like to thank Robert and Ryan as well as Rush Ownership for their continued commitment to the team.”

Both Church and Keenan have played the entirety of their careers with the Rush and have shared in the teams championship success over the past. 

“I’m really excited to sign for year 13 with the Rush! I can’t imagine playing anywhere else.  It’s an amazing young group and can’t wait to get started and compete for another championship” said Church.

Up next in the NLL, Free Agency will begin on August 15th.
