Wakefield prepare to '˜Rocket' to success
With Super League XXIII only one week away, the final touches are being made to Wakefield Trinity’s home rugby ground. But the alterations in a £12m renovation programme under way are not just physical as a raffle draw – in which more than 20 businesses’ names were put into a hat – has this week seen Belle Vue renamed “The Mobile Rocket Stadium” for the 2018 season.
Trinity, who only narrowly missed out on the play-offs when they finished fifth in the Betfred Super League last year, will now be hoping that their new “Rocket” base can launch them to a successful season.
