League 1 club confirm pre-season plans including clash against Super League title hopefuls

Dewsbury Rams have confirmed their line up of pre-season friendlies going into 2023 which includes a clash against Super League opposition.

After three separate announcements last week, the Rams have now confirmed their complete pre-season schedule as they prepare for the new League One season.

The Rams pre-season, following relegation from the Championship, will get underway with an annual Boxing Day clash against Batley Bulldogs. This year’s battle for the Roy Powell trophy will take place at the Fox’s Biscuits Stadium with kick-off at 12:00. Tickets are priced at just £15 for adults and concessions, whilst under 18’s go free! Tickets will be available at the turnstiles.

On Sunday 15^th January Dewsbury then face Bradford Bulls at the Rams Stadium with a 14:00 kick-off. Ticket details for this game will be announced in due course according to the Rams’ website.

The Bulls are angling for promotion after some huge signings.

Speaking of huge signings, their final pre-season friendly will see the Rams face Super League side, Huddersfield Giants at the John Smith’s Stadium on Sunday 12^th February at 15:00. Again, ticket details for this game will be announced in due course.

This could be one of the first chances to see Huddersfield’s big signings, including ex-Wigan Warriors Jake Bibby, ex-St Helens Kevin Naiqama and ex-Hull FC Jake Connor in action.

Speaking of Connor, he tipped the Giants to have a strong 2023 labelling their squad “the best.”

They are certainly title contenders.
