The weekend’s semi-finals action gets underway with the cup holders, Saints Women, against the reigning Betfred Women’s Super League champions York Valkyrie. Both sides impressed in their respective quarter-finals against Huddersfield Giants and Featherstone Rovers.
Sunday’s Betfred Women’s Challenge Cup semi-final sees Wigan Warriors Women standing in the way of a return to Wembley for last year’s beaten finalists Leeds Rhinos. The Rhinos ruthlessly despatched Warrington Wolves in the quarter-finals, while Denis Betts’s well-drilled Warriors defence offered Cardiff Demons precious little in their quarter-final tie.
