LIONS CELEBRATE 125 YEAR OF RUGBY LEAGUE WITH SUPERB ANNIVERSARY KIT!

17 May 2021

This month at Swinton Lions we celebrate the club’s 125th year of playing Rugby League Football.

Back in May 1896, having resigned from the Rugby Football Union, Swinton successfully applied to join the fledgling Northern Union, which had been formed just a few months earlier. This of course is what we now know as the Rugby Football League.

Just four seasons later, under the leadership of the legendary Jim Valentine, the Lions won the Challenge Cup, thus beginning the series of highs and lows which now form our magnificent history and heritage.

To mark this 125th Anniversary, in collaboration with our team wear partners SUPRO, we have commissioned a magnificent playing kit. This kit will be worn only once – in our match against Dewsbury Rams – but our fans will have the opportunity to own a limited-edition replica.

The all navy blue design is a nod to our original colours, as is the decision to strip back commercial logos with the kind consent of our club sponsors. The lion in shadow and other design features then give it a modern twist which we hope will prove a hit with fans of all ages.

Just 125 shirts will be available on a first come first basis – so please purchase early to avoid disappointment. Note that each of the 125 shirts will be individually tagged with its own unique number.
