Warrington RLFC: The Wire, NOT Warrington Wolves FORZA WIRE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_46584.jpg



If you think rugby league has an aging fan base, try going to a Premier League football game. Ticket prices at the majority of clubs, and ticket availability at the biggest clubs, means the average age of the crowd is far higher than it appears to me at Super League games.

No one worries that kids aren't interested in the Premier League though.

Quote: Seventies red "Not at my club (Hull Kr) There are plenty of young guns coming through the turnstiles each week, more so than for a long time I would say. Even walking down the street any day of the week I see plenty of young uns wearing jumpers and jackets with the HKR logo on the chest. On game day you only have to look in the east or North stands to see huge numbers of young men and women wearing the red and white of Hull KR, including lots of parents with their kids. I would say it's looking pretty good here with regards to the youth keeping the HKR fans tradition going.'"


Well said, I've been going to games for many (x3) years, and was first taken by my dad at 10 years old.

I don't see any difference in the demographic, I actually see clubs working hard to get the kids in through the SL foundations, and their support of junior RL.

Just part of the constant silly noise about the game dying from those who thought Toronto would keep it alive and kicking.......

They had a really quick death icon_wink.gif

No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.:

Only you would even attempt to use such a thread as an opportunity to post a vacuous comment about an overseas club.
It doesn't look like your imaginary efforts by SL Foundations,and their support of junior RL are working...

As long as you're happy,though.The people really aware,and concerned,can sleep easy,as they scrat about for every penny.

Quote: orangeman " How do we get the kids back.....?'"


Make it interesting. The same stuff we did 25 years ago doesn't interest kids now.

Ultimately we need England/GB to win something IMO. I think it's achievable too if we got the buy in of all the clubs.

Not next year but say two world cups after that set the target and go for it.
