The rising talent first linked up with Lindsay Anfield’s side ahead of the 2023 season, going on to score twice in nine appearances during her time at York.
Both of her tries came last season, the first in a 74-10 Women’s Challenge Cup win at dual registration partners Sheffield Eagles in March, before she again found the whitewash in a 62-0 rout of Featherstone Rovers at the LNER Community Stadium in July.
She could feature against the Valkyrie as early as April 6, with the sides drawn in a group against each other in the Women’s Challenge Cup group stages.
“I’m looking forward to a fresh start and a new challenge in 2025,” Izumi said of her move to the Giants.
“It’s been great meeting new people, and everyone has made me feel welcome.
“I’ll be aiming to develop myself as a player as well as playing my part in the overall progression of the squad.”

The young talent joins Ireland international Fran Copley in joining the Laund Hill club for 2025.
Ever-improving, Huddersfield will hope to build on their sixth-place finish last time out, with star full-back Amelia Brown going on to earn an England call-up and mark her debut with a hat-trick against Wales in November.
