Hooker Marc Breeze has committed his future to the Cardiff Blues by penning terms on a new contract.
The 25-year-old, who has previously played for Ospreys and London Welsh, admits that it was an easy decision to sign a new deal with the region.
"When I received the phone call last October to be part of the Cardiff Blues team I could not have asked for more. I had played against the boys regularly and played with some of them through the age grades, so I fitted in quite quickly," Breeze told the club's official site.
"I played 27 games in 13 months and also played my first Heineken Cup matches with the Cardiff Blues, which has been great for me.
"The facilities at the Blues are the best in Wales. You can't compare them with the ones at some of the other clubs that I have been to."
Breeze joined Cardiff from Aberavon FRC in October 2011.
