To mark 2013 being the year that will see World Cup rugby league arrive at MS3 Craven Park, Hull Kingston Rovers are to offer the people of Hull a chance to sample the sport for free in their first fixture of the Super League season against the Catalan Dragons.
1500 free tickets will be made available for the clash, which will see a large contingent of the French squad turn out for their club side ahead of their national team’s game against Papua New Guinea in east Hull in October as part of the World Cup group stages.
The offer is targeted at people who have yet to experience the frenetic excitement of rugby league and is an ideal way to be introduced to the sport without paying a single penny!
Councillor Terry Geraghty, Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Culture, said: "This is a great chance for people who have never seen rugby league to watch the Catalan game for free, which makes for an excellent prelude to the Rugby League World Cup games later this year.
"Those who take up this generous free offer will see players who will be part of the French Rugby League World Cup side, and while they are there they can also get a two for one deal on Rugby league World Cup tickets for the games at the MS3 Craven Park stadium."
Tickets will be issued in pairs, on a first come, first served basis and will be for the South Stand at MS3 Craven Park.

| Good idea but if trying to get new people into RL then sticking them in the south stand isn't a great idea but no alternative I know.

People should realise as it is free, but..... not sure you will gain any new fans of the sport as they won't be able to see or understand whats going on

| I guess for KR its nothing lost as the south stand would be empty anyway as minimal away fans so get people in for free and hopefully buy some food or programme etc. Also bumps up attendance a bit

| A most hilarious quip, the wit of a razor, we're cut to the quick, it's as if Oscar Wilde, Groucho Marks and Noam Chomsky have stumbled across our humble abode.
Laugh? I've quacked my kegs, busted a gut, shattered my funny bone.
Exhausted.

| Good to see the Council/Rovers work together to try and promote the WC. Hopefully the start of more promotions.
As others have said, only shame it's the 'South Stand' - but whilst it's there, it is what it is.
