After celebrating their 20th anniversary last year, Tigers are back with renewed ambition and looking to continue their upwards trajectory. We travel to North Herts Crusaders on the opening weekend but will be stepping out at Goldington Road upon our return to Bedford for round 2, hunting a first win over the Rhinos since May 2022.

Bedford Tigers Director of Rugby, Rob Ashton said: “It's an incredible opportunity for us to raise the profile of the club and our version of the sport. Bedford has such an incredible rugby following and we want people to know they have a club to call their own in the summer too.

“Working with the Blues and playing at Goldington Road just shows how far the divide between the two codes has come. And how forward thinking Bedford's rugby supporters are.

"We are looking forward to creating something special on the 26th and proving that rugby league absolutely works outside of its heartlands!"

Bedford Blues Chief Operating Officer, Gareth Alred said: “We are delighted to support Rob and the Tigers for this one-off game at the home of the Blues. With no fixtures for either of our senior sides that weekend, it made sense for both clubs to work together and hopefully gives our supporters chance to enjoy more rugby at Goldington Road.”
