The Ultimate Victory Parade
Hull KR's incredible journey to the Super League Grand Final victory is about to be celebrated in style. Starting from the Sewell Group Craven Park at 3:45 PM BST, the parade will wind its way through the vibrant streets of East Hull, reaching the iconic Hull City Hall in Victoria Square approximately 45 minutes later.
The Road to Victory
Hull KR etched their names in history as the fifth team ever to win the Super League Grand Final. In a breathtaking display at Old Trafford, they secured a historic treble, leaving BBC Sport's Jay Freeman in awe.
The turning point? Brad O'Neill's yellow card for a tip tackle on Tyrone May in the first half. While the Cherry and Whites were down a man, Mikey Lewis and Joe Burgess seized the opportunity, running in for crucial tries. Despite a late rally from Wigan, with Harry Smith touching down, Hull KR's Jez Litten found a gap and Burgess scored a second try, sealing the deal for Hull KR's first league championship triumph since 1984.
Celebrating the Historic Win
Today, Hull KR fans are out in full force, rejoicing in their team's historic treble-clinching victory over Wigan Warriors. The players will embark on an open-top bus parade at 3:45 PM BST, cruising through the streets of Hull and culminating in a grand celebration outside Hull City Hall.
