Men’s and Women’s teams nominated for Team of the Year at BBC SPOTY

And in recognition for a fantastic year of rugby league in St Helens, both our Men’s and Women’s teams were nominated for Team of the Year at Sunday night’s BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards for 2021.

England Men’s football team took home the prize after a gripping summer of football action which saw them lose out to Italy in the Euros Final. The Club wants to congratulate Gareth Southgate and his players on the achievement.

Nonetheless, despite not winning the award, our biggest fan Johnny Vegas did us proud with a quite brilliant summary of our year in the build-up to the award.

You can watch it below here.
