Wagga Wagga City Council has confirmed the city will host an NRLW pre-season trial game next month, under an agreement between Council and the Canberra Raiders.
At its meeting last night, Council endorsed entering into a Memorandum of Understanding with Canberra Raiders to host the game at McDonalds Park on Saturday 6 July.
“Council staff have been in consultation with Canberra Raiders regarding bringing new elite Rugby League content to the city in lieu of a National Rugby League premiership match in 2024,” Council said in a statement.
“Following these discussions, Canberra Raiders approached Council to host the NRLW pre-season trial match against Newcastle Knights, who are defending premiers.”
