    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

  • Leigh Rugby Club Was Formed in 1878 and Has Been the Heartbeat of the Community Ever Since
    Leigh Rugby Club was formed in 1878 and has been the heartbeat of the community ever since. One of the few towns in England where Rugby League is the dominant sport, Leigh’s own history is intrinsically linked with the fortunes of its rugby league club. Indeed, our town’s crest features a Latin motto which means ‘Progress with Unity’ something we always strive to instil. If you visit Leigh on a Sunday morning you will witness hundreds of children playing the game of rugby league. At our community clubs like Leigh Miners Rangers and Leigh East you will find entire families committed encouraging the disciplines and togetherness of our sport. It is a story reflected in Leigh’s own history where generations of the same family have pulled on the hooped shirt with pride. Both Leigh East and Leigh Miners play a kick away from Leigh Sports Village, a facility which has regenerated the town since it opened more than 10 years ago. More than just a stadium, this is a complex which has welcomed Champions League winners Bayern Munich and Rugby League World Champions Australia for training. Next year, the stadium will host several matches in the Rugby League World Cup and will also be a host venue for the Women’s European Football Championships. Manchester United Women have played their games at the stadium since their formation and global TV coverage means the name of the Leigh Sports Village is now a familiar one with sports fans across the world. It is a stadium which ‘Leythers’ are happy to call home and the atmosphere on match days can take your breath away.
