Wagga Wagga will host an NRLW pre-season trial game next month, under an agreement between Wagga Wagga City Council and the Canberra Raiders.
At its meeting last night (Tuesday 11 June), Council endorsed entering into a Memorandum of Understanding with Canberra Raiders to host the game at McDonalds Park on Saturday 6 July 2024.
Council staff have been in consultation with Canberra Raiders regarding bringing new elite Rugby League content to the city in lieu of a National Rugby League premiership match in 2024.
Following these discussions, Canberra Raiders approached Council to host the NRLW pre-season trial match against Newcastle Knights, who are defending premiers.
