Record breaking Headingley Stadium : Tue Jul 26, 2022 10:41 am
Not only is this amazing for the sport, and the Women’s game in particular, it’s also a great opportunity for Leeds. You’ve got to think a lot in this crowd won’t be Leeds Rhinos regulars as things stand, but could become future Leeds supporters in 2023 and beyond.
“Leeds is on course to set an attendance record for women's rugby at this year's Rugby League World Cup. Headingley will host the first game of the women's tournament on November 1, when England host Brazil in West Yorkshire. That game is now well on track to set the all-time record for a crowd watching a standalone fixture of women's rugby in either code. The existing record is the 15,862 that watched England play Ireland in Leicester at the Six Nations earlier this year” https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/rugb ... d-24588976 |
