Scarlets head coach Wayne Pivac has signed a contract extension to keep him at the club until atleast the end of 2019-20 season.

Pivac, who took over the role from Simon Easterby ahead of the 2014-15 season, guided Scarlets the Pro12 title in 2016-17 and is now eyeing further success at the club.

"I've made no secret of the fact that I'm enjoying my time here," Pivac said. "I'm looking forward to the next few years and seeing the Scarlets continue to develop and grow and I'd like to thank the Board of Directors for their continued support.

"The next step is to be competitive in Europe on a regular basis. I think the last two weeks have shown that when we get our top side out there we are very competitive. We've had a few top class players unavailable. I think we're not far off."

Scarlets next match is against Cardiff Blues on Oct.28 in the Pro14.
