YOUR GUIDE TO THE CO-OPERATIVE FINALS THE race is on to get to the Co-operative Finals Day at Warrington’s Halliwell Jones Stadium on Sunday 26 September when the Championship, Championship 1 and RLC National honours will be decided. The play-off matches will take place over a three-week period with the Eagles launching the games when they travel to Leigh Centurions on Thursday 2 September. Featherstone Rovers are looking to cap a fine season by adding a Championship Grand Final to the Championship League Leaders’ Shield. Oldham will be going all out to clinch promotion from Championship One by what would be their fourth consecutive final. RLC National side Bramley Buffaloes are on course to make it six Grand Final appearances on the trot after clinching a fifth successive League Leaders Shield. Liz Matkin, Head of Sponsorship at The Co-operative commented: “As the season enters the finishing straight there are still 18 clubs in with the chance of silverware and The Co-operative would like to wish every one of those sides the very best of luck as they strive to get to what promises to be an outstanding finals day in Warrington.” RFL Chief Executive Nigel Wood said: “All of the teams entering this year’s Co-operative Championship and RLC National play-offs should be congratulated on their achievements but this is where the business end of the season really starts.” Below is your guide to all the lay-offs games.
