Match Preview: Wheelchair Challenge Cup Final

Following last weekend’s Men’s and Women’s Challenge Cup Finals, this Sunday sees the turn of the Wheelchair competition as the Rhinos and Catalans Dragons clash at Sheffield’s EIS Arena, kick off 1pm.

The teams finished joint top of the table at a qualifying Festival at Hull University’s Allam Sport Centre last month, to set up a repeat of last year’s Final which the Rhinos won 48-34 to maintain their grip on the Cup which stretches back to 2019.

Shown live on BBC iPlayer, fans can watch all the action live as the Rhinos look to lift the Cup for a fourth time. Tickets for the game are still available to buy here, and includes the Challenge Trophy Final between Sheffield Eagles and Gravesend Dynamite.

We caught up with Head Coach, James Simpson, as he leads his team into the Final for the first time since his retirement from the game.
