League 1 opening weekend set for Our League

Our League 1 opening fixture against Coventry Bears will be streamed live on Our League, with passes available to purchase.

Fans can now purchase their live stream passes for our clash against Coventry on Sunday, May 9, while season ticket holders will receive their codes soon.

Early bird prices are £4.95, increasing to £10.00 on the day.

The start of Betfred League 1 means another feast of action available on Our League as the countdown continues to the much-anticipated return of spectators to Rugby League this month.

The schedules for the weekends of May 7-9 and 14-17 were confirmed last week, with a total of 21 fixtures in Betfred Championship and League 1 available for purchase on pay per view on the RFL’s Our League web and app – at the established Early Bird price of £4.95.

The opening round of Betfred League 1 fixtures include an attractive home opener for Rochdale Hornets against a West Wales Raiders team whose high-profile signings, Gavin Henson and Rangi Chase, have had several weeks to build on the promise shown in a Challenge Cup defeat by Widnes.

Promotion favourites Barrow Raiders open up with a trip to the Midlands to face Coventry Bears at Butts Park Arena, while their Cumbrian rivals Workington Town are also on the road to face Hunslet at the South Leeds Stadium.

Keighley Cougars face Doncaster, and the Betfred League 1 will begin on Saturday May 8 when London Skolars host North Wales Crusaders at the New River Stadium.

The following weekend, North Wales play their first home game at their new Colwyn Bay base against Hunslet and West Wales host Coventry at Stebonheath Park on Saturday May 15 before the remaining three matches the following day: Barrow v Keighley, Doncaster v Rochdale and Workington v Skolars.
