Featherstone set for friendly in Valencia

Featherstone have revealed their pre-season calendar for 2020, which includes an away trip to Spain to face Valencia Huracanes.

The game is due to take place on Saturday 11 January at the Levante Stadium, however the club are still waiting to have the game sanctioned by the RFL.
