WHEELCHAIR RUGBY LEAGUE: Table-topping Leeds Rhinos, the only team in the Super League with 100 per cent record, take on reigning champions Halifax for the first time since last year’s Grand Final in the concluding game of this season’s third Magic Weekend.

The action kicks off at noon in Manchester’s National Basketball Centre with second-placed London Roosters facing Wigan before bottom club Warrington play Hull FC. 

SPEEDWAY: Jack Holder bagged a massive 18 points on his home track but the Sheffield Tigers still lost at home for the first time this season, 46-44 to a superb team performance from Leicester.

The visitors also gained the aggregate point and are up to second in the Premiership, four points behind Belle Vue but with three games in hand. Ipswich thumped bottom club Peterborough 52-38 in Thursday’s other fixture.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: Hungary held off a spirited Czechia fightback to win 62-61 and set up on Saturday evening’s Euro Women’s Basketball semi final with Spain, who overwhelmed Germany 67-42.

Emma Meesseman scored the tournament’s first ever triple-double as Belgium crushed Serbia 93-53 and they will now face France, fresh from their 89-46 thrashing of Montenegro, in the other semi final. The final tips-off in the Slovenian capital Ljubljana on Sunday evening.

WOMEN’S RUGBY UNION: Gloucester-Hartpury line up for their first ever Women’s Premier 15s Grand Final Saturday afternoon when they take on Exeter at their jokingly rebranded Queensholm stadium.

It will be the first time in the competition’s history that the champions will come from outside of London. Gloucester won the league title in the regular season by just one point from Exeter before edging out Bristol in their play-off semi final.
