“It’s been coming all year. I’m not one to make excuses
but we’ve had our injuries, having to bring new people in and
it’s just been very unsettled. To go out there with a settled
thirteen, it just gave us the platform to stand up and step up
and you know, on Magic Weekend’s, everyone has to step up
and I believe we did that.”
“… Every time we concede a try, I take that personally so
for me it’s good and for the team it’s massive, it shows we can
go for eighty minutes. This part of the table is so tight, so when
it gets down to the actual crunch time and you look at the top
five, points difference could be the difference between a team
making it and not making it.
“We realised that once we got our foot in the door, we said
let’s just strangle them and go for it and be relentless in what
we do today.”
The club also works hard to play an important role in their
local area through their Huddersfield Giants Community
Trust which is a non-profit organisation delivering sports and
education-based initiatives into the community.
They state on their official website https://hgct.co.uk/,
“We are here to inspire, create opportunities, promote being
active, and as a whole build a stronger community where
everyone belongs.
Huddersfield Giants Community Trust has the ability to
engage, improve community cohesion, improve fitness and
well-being and raise the hopes and aspirations of the people of
Kirklees, Calderdale and Wakefield.”
There is clearly much to admire about the work that
Huddersfield Giants carries out both on and off the field. If
they continue in the same manner they should be able to look
forwards to a bright and successful future for many years
to come. If they continue to produce performances like the
one against Hull then this may prove to be a campaign to
remember as well.

Commenting on E3R’s involvement with Huddersfield Giants, E3R
Director James Soden said:
“E3R was approached to become a part of the Huddersfield Giants
rugby league family and an official club partner in 2014. There
were a number of attractions for us as a business to really engage
with the Giants at that time, as there was a great deal of synergy
between us and the club with it receiving a lot of recognition and
coverage on the M62 corridor, with rugby league clubs based all
along the route, where many of E3R clients are based.”
“We have not only acquired new clients via other club partners,
but our involvement has also provided a great environment to
meet and entertain existing client. We have also been very keen to
provide our employees and workers with the opportunity to utilise
the hospitality on offer.
“Personally, I was introduced to rugby league when I re-located
to Huddersfield for university back in 2001. I was more of a union
player before that time, but I have quickly become part of the rugby
league family.
“I would just like to say how engaging and personal the club is, it
provides an amazing family environment, with partner training days
- where we are able to eat and train with the first team at the John
Smith’s stadium - plus charity fun days, and a real acceptance to
children and families being a huge part of the club. In my opinion
there really is no other professional sport that is so accessible and
engaging for all.”
