It is mindboggling to think that we are about to enter a five week hiatus of the Premiership Women’s Rugby season.
Trailfinders Women face off against Loughborough Lightning in PWR Round 17 on Sat 25th May 2024 at Trailfinders Sports Ground. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 12:30. In South Africa it’s at 13:30 SAST, 23:30 NZST in New Zealand, 21:30 AEST in Australia and 04:30 EST in the US.
Loughborough Lightning won the last encounter but both teams are in the same form for their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by just 1 place in the league table with Loughborough Lightning in 5th and Trailfinders Women in 6th underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for Trailfinders Women vs Loughborough Lightning will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
