Rugby League side London Broncos are heading
to Priestfield this year
London Broncos will stage a one-off match at
Gillingham’s Priestfield stadium in May.
The Super League side will head to Kent, as
one of two matches away from their regular Stoop venue, for their
fixture against Hull.
The Broncos are also staging a match at Leyton
Orient’s Brisbane Road.
They head to Priestfield on Sunday, May
20.
This season the rugby league side are
relaunching themselves as the London Broncos after playing under
the Harlequins banner since 2006, where they formed an alliance
with their rugby union landlords.
The club, who have taken part in all 16
seasons of Super League since it started in 1996, have been based
at seven different venues around the capital already in their
history.
Average home crowds at the Stoop, in
Twickenham, last season were 3,131 and they hope by coming to Kent
they can reach out to a bigger audience.
