Rhinos Women squad to face Leigh Miners Rangers

Leeds Rhinos Women play their first home game of the season at Sports Park Weetwood in the Betfred Women's Challenge Cup against Leigh Miners Rangers, kick off 2pm.

Team News

Rhinos captain Courtney Winfield-Hill, who was named in the England Performance Squad last week, will play her first game of the season. Sophie Robinson, who last season scored five tries in 12 appearances, is also named in the squad for the first time this season, but Forsell is without new signing Georgia Roche.

Co-captain Hanna Butcher is set to make her 50th appearance for the club. Robinson needs just four points to reach 100 for the club, Elle Frain needs six to reach 50. Winfield-Hill and Fran Goldthorp could also reach significant milestones in the Cup. Goldthrorp is ten points off achieving 50 in the Cup and Winfield-Hill is just one kick away from 50 Cup goals.
