SHEFFIELD have arranged an opening-night Inter-League Challenge with SGB Premiership newcomers Somerset.
The Rebels will visit Owlerton on Thursday March 30 in a repeat of last season’s Premier League Grand Final, and Tigers newcomer Josh Grajczonek will make his debut on the night.
Sheffield co-promoter Damien Bates said: “We are delighted to welcome Somerset back for our opening night, it’s a great way for the tapes to go up on a new season at Owlerton.
“I’d like to thank them for their co-operation and it’s great for us to have Josh available for the meeting.
“Last year’s play-off final was good, we were proud of our achievement to battle through an injury crisis to get there but we were always up against it and Somerset were always the favourites.
“Of course it would be nice to beat them on opening night but I want to see entertainment for the fans and a good workout for the lads.”
