Another 20 Championship games to be streamed on Our League
The Championship clubs have agreed a fixture schedule for Rounds 2-4, with 20 more games to be streamed on Our League.
The schedule includes Toulouse’s first home game against London Broncos on April 17, a derby between Bradford and Halifax the following day, and consecutive home fixtures for Newcastle Thunder against Sheffield (April 24) and Batley (May 2).
All of the games will be shown on Our League – free to the season ticket holders of the home club – with all fans able to watch on Pay Per View.
Streaming passes will go on sale in the next couple of weeks after the initial block of pre-season games and the first round of the Challenge Cup.
Day and weekend passes will again be made available at £15 and £20, with the same early-bird offer of £4.95 for each match. All profit from the Pay Per View games goes to the participating clubs.
