Super League bring matches forward due to changes in pub opening hours

Super League has responded to the new restrictions on pub opening hours by bringing forward kick-off times at upcoming matches.

Following changes to the coronavirus guidelines this week, pubs and equivalents must close at 10pm.

Games starting at 8.15pm normally go well beyond 10pm, with the recent game between Leeds and Huddersfield not finishing until 10.35pm.

As a result, the double header at the AJ Bell Stadium on Tuesday September 29 has been brought forward by half an hour.

Salford will now take on Warrington at 5.30pm, while Wigan entertain St Helens at 7.45pm, both games live on Sky Sports.
