Soccer celebrity Kamara to conduct Cup draw with Sculthorpe

Television presenter Chris Kamara is set to conduct the draw for the semi-finals of the Challenge Cup live on BBC Two at Langtree Park, St Helens on Sunday June 28.

Alongside him will be Saints and Great Britain legend Paul Sculthorpe, who won the Challenge Cup with St Helens four times in 2001, 2004, 2006 and 2008.

He scored over 1,300 career points for Saints and Warrington and is still the only player to win back-to-back Man of Steel awards.

Former footballer and manager, Kamara played for teams such as Bradford City, Stoke City and Leeds United in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

The television personality and Ladbrokes Challenge Cup ambassador can now be seen presenting popular Saturday night show Ninja Warrior UK and offering his unique perspective on Goals on Sunday.
