"Last Friday evening James (my husband) and I went to our first-ever Rugby League match. I had won two tickets to see Harlequins play Castleford, and we decided that free was the best reason to try something new, and given that it was a nice evening, we headed out.
Even after reading the rules synopsis we found online, we sometimes didn't know exactly what was going on. But that didn't stop it from being a lot of fun to watch, and we got into the swing of things after a few minutes, and cheered with the best of them. It's a faster game than Rugby Union, and seems to have elements of both soccer and US Football, but that is simply from observation, not from a real knowledge of the game.
It was a really fun evening out, and the other fans were great. If you're looking for something new to try before you head home - get out into the nice weather and head to a Rugby League match. You won't be disappointed."- Kris
