This Saturday, 26th July, the Totally Wicked Stadium will be the venue for St.Helens versus Wigan Warriors in the Academy Championship, with kick-off scheduled for 1pm.
Local bragging rights are on the line as our storied and fiery rivalry gets ignited once more by our Under 18s team.
Both Saints and Wigan are fiercely proud of the rugby league talent produced that has come through both our Academy setups, and gone on to become key men in our First Teams. Academy Derby matches are often the chance to see players who will be lining up in Super League matches in the not too distant future.
The Saints Academy had their five-match winning run ended last time out, losing away to current table toppers Leeds Rhinos. Our Red V Under 18s hold a record of five wins and three losses going into Saturday’s fixture.
The Warriors hold the same win/loss record, and currently are a place above the Saints in the Academy Championship table by points difference alone.
Saturday’s match should be a brilliant watch, between two terrific young teams, and we want as many of the Saints faithful in the stands at our home as possible!
