Hull Kingston Rovers Expand Seating for Upcoming Matches
<pIn advance of the upcoming events, Hull Kingston Rovers (KR) have announced the addition of 1,000 temporary seats for their home match against Leeds Rhinos on September 20. The club made this decision due to "unprecedented demand" for tickets following the announcement that the event was already a sell-out.
The match against Leeds is particularly significant as it marks the final game of the regular season, where the Rovers sit at the top of the league and are poised to contend for the coveted League Leaders’ Shield title. The additional seats will go on sale at 4 PM today through the club’s official website, although tickets will be reserved seating and sold on a ‘best buy’ basis, meaning supporters cannot select their specific seats.
Hull KR’s Performance and Momentum
Hull KR has been on a remarkable winning streak at home, recently achieving three consecutive victories. Their recent performances include triumphs over the London Broncos (40-16), Castleford Tigers (36-6), and Salford Red Devils (32-12). This impressive run has bolstered their point differential, putting them in a strong position ahead of their match against Wigan Warriors, which is scheduled for this Friday.
With such momentum building, Hull KR is looking to secure a playoff position as well as solidify their status as title contenders. The added capacity for the Leeds fixture underscores the growing excitement and support for the team as they ready themselves for a crucial end to the season.
