In a fitting tribute to the late Rob Burrow, the Challenge Cup final will kick-off at 3.07pm this Saturday, a nod to the former Leeds Rhinos scrum-half who sadly lost his battle with motor neurone disease.

The Rugby League community will come together at Wembley to honour one of the sport's legends.

Before both the men's and women's finals, a minute's silence will be observed, with a special applause on the seventh minute to remember Burrow's illustrious career.

Known for wearing the number 7 jersey with courage and distinction, Burrow's legacy will forever be remembered in the rugby league world.

Fans at Wembley will have the opportunity to join in the celebration of Burrow's life, with a minute's applause after seven minutes in each of the four finals on Rugby League's biggest day.

From the inspiresport Champion Schools final to the second Betfred Women's Challenge Cup final, the spirit of Burrow will be felt throughout the matches.

It's a day to remember a true rugby league hero, as teams like Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves battle it out on the field in a tribute to the great Rob Burrow.

The Challenge Cup final will not just be a game, but a chance to honor an unforgettable player and advocate for those affected by MND.
