LEOPARDS TO FACE WOLVES IN A PRE-SEASON FRIENDLY
Leigh Leopards can confirm that they will be taking on Warrington Wolves at The Halliwell Jones Stadium on Saturday 3rd February 2024 at 5:30pm in a pre-season Warm Up Game.
This fixture will give Leopards’ fans the opportunity to watch the squad in action ahead of the start of the 2024 Betfred Super League season and will also act as the testimonial for Warrington Wolves forward Joe Philbin.
Philbin, 29, has made 196 appearances for the Wolves since his debut in 2014 and has also represented Great Britain, England, Ireland, and England Knights.
Leigh Leopards Head of Rugby Chris Chester said: “We are pleased to have been invited to take part in Joe’s testimonial game.
“Joe has been a good servant to Warrington over the last ten years. To have played ten years at the highest level, especially doing it all at one club, is a rarity in the modern game. Joe can be proud of his achievements, and we wish him well in his testimonial year.
“We are pleased that Leigh Leopards are going to be involved in marking Joe’s testimonial in this manner and are looking forward to the game, which will form a key part of our preparations ahead of our Round One game against Huddersfield Giants on Friday 16 February.”
Tickets will be made available in due course from The Leopards Den ticket office
