Stadium
The match takes at the Kirklees Stadium, which has gone by several different sponsor names down the years including the McAlpine Stadium, the Galpharm Stadium and the John Smith’s Stadium.
No matter what you call the ground it is one of the biggest and most easily recognisable Rugby League stadiums in England and one that has hosted many important matches down the years.
With a capacity just over 24,000, the ground is an incredible venue to watch the sport when full but sadly it is often the case that there are as many empty seats as there are full ones when the Giants play.
That is especially true for matchup such as this one but there should still be a relatively healthy crowd in attendance and that should give the players all that they need to entertain us all.
The ground is an all-seater stadium, with modern corporate facilities that is also of course home to towns football club, Huddersfield Town.
Over the years, the ground has proven to be a popular choice to be a neutral venue for Challenge Cup semi-finals and it has also hosted numerous England internationals and neutral test matches including many games at Rugby League World Cups when England have been the host nation.
Location
Huddersfield is the host town for this game and for those who don’t know that is incredibly fitting as Huddersfield is rightly known as the ‘Birthplace of Rugby League’.
It was at the towns George Hotel where the leading northern based Rugby clubs held a meeting to breakaway from the RFU and formed the Northern Union- the precursor to today’s Rugby League Football.
Nowadays, the town sits right in the middle of the sports traditional northern heartlands and has a thriving amateur scene, whilst the club have become a mainstay of the topflight after a bumpy start to the summer era of the sport.
About
