Wolfpack to spend more time in England this season due to stadium renovations
TORONTO — The Toronto Wolfpack’s home debut has been pushed back to May after the decision to schedule an April 28 game against Halifax RLFC in a neutral site in north London at the home of the London Skolars.
The decision means that the transatlantic rugby league team, whose Toronto home is being renovated, will spend the first three months of the season playing in England.
The Wolfpack begin regular-season play in the second-tier Championship on Feb. 4 at Leigh Centurions. Toronto will now play the first 12 games of the 23-round regular season on the road.
The Wolfpack say the London game is a chance to “further raise the profile of the Wolfpack brand.”
