Wheelchair squads named for Wigan clashes
10/04/2026
Wheelchair Head Coach Greg Brown has confirmed his squad for tomorrow’s Betfred Super League season opener against Wigan Warriors at Robin Park Arena (4:15pm kick-off).
The Eagles go into the game unchanged following their Betfred Challenge Cup Round 1 victory over Midlands Hurricanes and will be aiming to carry that momentum into their league campaign.
It’s set to be a full day of wheelchair rugby league action, with all three Eagles sides taking on Wigan opposition.
The Development Team gets things underway at 1:15pm, looking to build on a strong start to their Development League season. They are followed by the Super League Reserves, who kick off at 3:00pm.
The headline fixture sees the first team in action at 4:15pm, as the Eagles begin their second Super League season with the goal of starting on a high.
All three matches are free to attend, and supporters are encouraged to come down and show their support throughout the day.
Squad lists for each fixture can be found below.
