Burleigh had planned a players trip to England to hopefully catch some 4 nations (which unfortunately they won't) and contacted a number of clubs back in May - including Halifax - to see if anyone was interested in a game.
We saw this as the perfect opportunity for James' match and therefore made contact and finalised details. They arrive here next Tuesday and stay for 12 days, staying in Leeds and London apart from the one night in Halifax next Friday.
They're hoping to take in a premiership match but won't be playing anyone other than the James Haley XIII.
We are covering some of their expenses whilst in Halifax, and giving them a good night out at Liquid afterwards (free admission for match ticket holders!), but apart from that they are happy to be playing and supporting James, and hoping we can build a relationship as clubs.
Top people who we are looking forward immensely to meeting.
