Monday 16 August started a busy week at Castleford RUFC - beginning the fourth and last week of the HAF Fun at Castleford RUFC programme there was a trip to Manchester City's Etihad Stadium. We were able to take 43 children on a great stadium tour. It is a stunning stadium and we were able to go pitchside after a virtual crowd cheered the groups down the tunnel. It really is a magnificent, state of the art stadium. The guides were very helpful and were able to provide lots of information that complemented the behind the scenes tour which included the hospitality suite, the Away and Home dressing rooms (with a noticeable difference between them) and a lot more.
The children enjoyed the bus trip as much as the stadium tour but the M62 was pretty busy (an understatement). Thanks to Ross Travel.
