Competition: Wetherby Whaler Festive Challenge 

West Yorkshire rivals Leeds Rhinos and Wakefield Trinity go toe-to-toe this Boxing Day in the Wetherby Whaler Festive Challenge.

This annual pre-season tradition, introduced nine years ago at AMT Headingley, sees the close neighbours dust off the pre-season cobwebs in a festive clash ahead of the new season commencing in February.

You can reserve your copy of ‘Blue & Amber’ for this pre-season showdown for just £3, plus post and packaging to a UK/Ireland address.

This A5 size 32-page edition will be sent by Royal Mail pre-match on 19th December but could take at least five days to arrive due to postal delays over the festive period. Any orders subsequently placed after the fixture has taken placed will aim to be dispatched within three working days from 5th January.
