Scarlets quartet Josh Macleod, Tom Phillips, Tom Price and Steffan Hughes have all signed new deals at the Welsh club.
Forwards Macleod, Phillips and Price have all made impressive progress at Parc y Scarlets this season, while centre Hughes, a former Wales Under-20 captain, made 17 appearances after recovering from a serious knee injury.
The Scarlets have not disclosed the length of the deals that the four players have signed.
But general manager of rugby Jon Daniels told the club's website: "Josh, Tom (Phillips) and Steff are all products of our development pathway here at the Scarlets, and our development is something we've always been proud of in West Wales and in the Scarlets region.
"We're fortunate to be in a position to not only be fielding a side week-in week-out filled with home-grown talent, but also to be competing in the final stages of the Guinness PRO12 with talented players who have developed within the region."
The Scarlets finished third in the PRO12 this season and play Leinster in Dublin on Friday, live on Sky Sports, for a place in the end-of-season play-off final.
