TRICEL COMPOSITES SUPPORTS HUNSLET RLFC FOR ANOTHER SEASON
Ensuring Free Access for Young Fans and Strengthening Rugby’s Grassroots in 2025
hUNSLET rlfc: fREE aDMISSION TO uNDER-16S
Tricel Composites proudly continues its sponsorship of Hunslet RLFC, enabling Under-16s to attend all 2025 Betfred Championship home games for free. Now in its third year, the partnership demonstrates our ongoing commitment to grassroots rugby and the local community.
As financial pressures mount in the Championship, Hunslet RLFC considered ending free admission for young fans in 2025. Fortunately, our renewed sponsorship keeps the opportunity alive for families to introduce their children to professional rugby league at no cost.
Shared Commitment to Community And The Future of Rugby.
Hunslet CEO, Neil Hampshire, expressed his gratitude stating, “This is the 3rd year Tricel Composites have supported us. With the current financial situation and the additional costs associated with playing in the Championship, we had to consider whether it would be viable to offer free admission in 2025. Thankfully, Tricel Composites has once again made it affordable for families in our community to experience professional rugby league.”
At Tricel Composites, we firmly believe in the power of sport to bring communities together. Robbie Larkin, Head of Tricel’s Distribution Division, highlighted the importance of the initiative: “At Tricel, we are delighted to be playing our part in Hunslet’s journey and supporting the local community. We hope this support will encourage more children to attend the games and get behind the team.”
Echoing this sentiment, Steve Leat, Managing Director of Tricel Composites, added, “We are proud to be sponsoring this initiative, and hopefully, this will grow the fanbase. We wish the team all the best for the new season and encourage families to go along to South Leeds Stadium to support them.”
Growing Impact: Reaching More Families Through Rugby
Last year, we issued 60 children’s season tickets, with at least as many parents benefiting from discounts. Although tracking matchday walk-ups proved more difficult, we estimate that over 50 children attended each home game, each accompanied by an adult. Over 15 games, these visits totaled more than 3,000. Now that Hunslet RLFC competes in the Championship, we expect even greater numbers this season.
