Barrow's Elliot Newby, Paul Farman and Niall Canavan have extended their contracts until the summer of 2025.
The three first-team regulars all triggered clauses which extend current deals until the end of next season.
Centre-back Canavan, 32, is the only Barrow player to have started every league game this season and played every league minute last season.
Winger Newby, 28, and keeper Farman, 34, have also met the terms of the clause, which relates to appearances.
Canavan, who has played at a higher level with Scunthorpe, Rochdale, and Plymouth, and joined from Bradford in 2022, "There's been a lot of change since I've come in, a lot of differences both on and off the pitch but I've really enjoyed it.
"When I came in, I knew it would be a different kind of challenge to what I'm used to but I've enjoyed it all and I'm looking forward to what the future holds."
Barrow are two points off an automatic promotion spot in League Two, and Farman said: "It's got better and better every year and when the gaffer and Temps [assistant manager Adam Temple] came in they promised the club would keep getting better, and since they've come in we've come on leaps and bounds as a club, as a community and as a team."
