Ahead of our season opener, we have an announcement.
With a new year and a new season starting, we have made the decision to change our name. Formally known as The Warrington Wolves Charitable Foundation, we are now The Warrington Wolves Community Foundation.
Ian and Oliver would like to wish everybody a happy
#WorldDownSyndromeDay
from everyone at the Wolves Foundation. They have their odd socks on today, do you? Send us a pic of your odd socks.
Meet Tony Seward, our PDRL speed machine who is just setting off for tonight’s training session.
What we should mention is he’s currently at home, in Devon. 😳
He makes the 8 hour round trip every Tuesday just to train.
