Then, on Sunday 18th August, the biggest day in the community rugby league calendar will be coming to Neath. The 2024 Wales Rugby League Grand Finals Day will see all competitions come to a climax in a day featuring four age group Grand Finals, culminating in the JES Group Rugby League Conference Grand Final.
Richard Hibbard, CEO of Wales Rugby League, commented: “It’s fantastic that we’re taking two big rugby league events to Neath this summer.
“It’s a community steeped in rugby history, that loves to watch entertaining, skilful players show what they can do. That’s what makes it a great place to showcase the best of community rugby league, as well as potential future international stars of our sport.
“When Wales play against any England side at any level, it’s always an extra special occasion. With a chance for our under 16s to win back-to-back Four Nations titles against an England side looking to take that crown from us, it promises to be a great game.
Mike Price, Club Secretary and Board member at Neath RFC, added: “Having these prestigious Wales Rugby League events hosted at The Gnoll is a tremendous honour for Neath RFC and the entire community.
“It’s not just about showcasing top-tier rugby league talent but also celebrating our rich sporting identity and heritage. We look forward to welcoming fans and families for what promises to be an exciting and memorable series of matches.”
