The match takes place on Friday, 6th February 2026, at the Fibrus Community Stadium (Derwent Park), with kick-off scheduled for 7.30pm.<\/p>\n
Paul Rowley\u2019s first competitive fixture as Head Coach of St.Helens will be a trip to Cumbria to face Betfred Championship side Workington, in the first meeting between the two sides since the 1996 season.<\/p>\n
It is somewhat fitting that the Saints will begin the 2026 season with a visit to Derwent Park, which is how the club kicked off the inaugural Super League campaign.<\/p>\n
St.Helens in 2026 are celebrating 30 years since the historic Double, when the team secured the first-ever Super League title and the Challenge Cup trophy, beginning a period of dominance in the Summer Era of rugby league.<\/p>\n
Workington progressed to this stage of the 2026 Betfred Challenge Cup following a victory over St Helens community club, Blackbrook ARLFC. It was a valiant effort from Blackbrook in the Second Round; however, Town proved too strong, winning 28\u20136.<\/p>\n
