Halifax RLFC would like to invite all Super League Clubs’ season ticket holders to watch our game against Widnes Vikings Free of Charge on Thursday 29th July 2010, kick off 7:30pm.

All we ask in return is that they show their season ticket at the gate and make a donation to the Overgate Hospice charity. Entry is to the South Stand only where a designated turnstile will be in operation.

Why not come down to The Shay to see two of the three clubs with Super League license points in our Championship Crunch Clash.

Michael Steele, Director of Halifax RLFC said “The Club recognises its place in the local community and values the work which the hospice performs for the people of Calderdale.

As well as welcoming Super League season ticket holders to see their potential future opponents, this is an ideal opportunity for them to see the best of championship rugby in what are now Super League surroundings.”

Lauren Ingram of Overgate Hospice said “We are delighted and really appreciate this gesture by Halifax RLFC. We rely very heavily on our local community to raise the £5,000 needed each day so that we can continue to provide our care free of charge.

Since 1981 Overgate Hospice has provided specialist care for people in Calderdale who have a life limiting illness. We know that we cannot add days to life, but with the support of the community, our care will add life to the days of our patients, helping people to make the most of the time they have left.”

Why haven't you posted it on the Harlequins board?

one ex fan, can come for nowt now as well with his Rhinos/Bulls season ticket.

He wouldn't be seen dead at a Fax match.

an or Makali be playing ?

Havent heard any news on these two recent ?

Wouldnt imagine so. Makali wouldnt be able to get in the side at the moment and Stan is going through displinary proceedings with the club at the moment, if i recall correctly.

may be coming over from hull to watch the game, should be a great game really enjoyed your last match on sky

all will be very welcome

Great move by the club

I won't be there. First home game I'll have missed since.... well, I can't remember when.

I'll be at Sonisphere. Hoping to find a pub that might show the game down that way, but somehow I doubt we'll find one.

trying to boost your attendance to meet the 2500 requirement to apply for a sl licence?? bit naughty if u ask me..surely these cant count towards your attendance? its a well thought idea..boosts your attendance, looks good for you on sky and widnes aren't at the top of their game at the minute whereas fax are coming off the back of a brilliant win at barrow. hopefully widnes will put on a brilliant performance and take the 3 points

What a brilliant idea whoever thought of it should be congratulated for their initiative and I don`t think the idea is "a bit naughty " either it`s called a good piece of marketing in my book.

good idea to get fans of RL to the shay and boost the charity coffers.

This has even made it onto the Sky Sports news ticker. Exposure-tastic.
