Saints ushered in the new season with their traditional Pre Season Dinner.

Sponsored by James Edwards Landrover and hosted at Haydock Racecourse, more than 180 people gathered to celebrate the start of the new campaign.

MC'd by Neil Holding, player sponsors got the opportunity to meet their players and present them with their match shirts for the season ahead.

Guests also could win a raft of prizes from the club and event's sponsors by playing casino games.
