The Black & Whites will return to the MKM Stadium this weekend for our Betfred Super League Round 19 clash against Castleford Tigers, with a bumper match day of activities coming up and an exclusive ticket offer for military and emergency services personnel as part of our Armed Forces Match Day!
The Black & Whites will host their Yorkshire rivals at the MKM Stadium on Saturday 15th July (3.00pm), with a whole host of Armed Forces themed activities taking place in and around the ground, including our military themed West Park Fan Zone.
The Black & Whites will take to the field in their brand-new Armed Forces jersey, which pays tribute to the club’s long-standing relationship with all branches of the military, with links through the likes of club icons Jack Harrison VC MC, Johnny Whiteley MBE and Clive Sullivan MBE who served for their country, as well as current first-team player Mitieli Vulikijapani who serves as a gunner in the 47 Regiment Royal Artillery.
The jersey and accompanying training range is on sale now at hullfcshop.com and in store.
Tony Smith’s men will be aiming to building on Sunday’s Hull Derby victory at Craven Park, and continue their strong home form of recent months with wins over Huddersfield, Wigan and reigning champions St Helens recently, before a hard-fought battle against Catalans last weekend.
And those with links to the forces and the emergency services can help create an electric atmosphere and build a bumper crowd, with tickets for Armed Forces personnel and military veterans available for just £15 in store with our exclusive ticket offer.
Full ticket and match day details can be found below:

Our fan zones have become a staple of our summer match days in recent seasons, with thousands of fans enjoying a range of activities and entertainment ahead of some of our biggest themed match days, including last season’s Armed Forces game against Leeds.
On top of our regular fan park activity including the chance to meet the players, inflatables, live music, games consoles, pop-up retail store, rugby games and drills, face painters, balloon moddlers, and other games and activities, we’ll have a whole host of military related displays!
Get up close and personal with military vehicles from various local regiments, try your hand at military themed activities, and see a real life weapon collection, with plenty more to be announced as the game draws closer!
Inside The Ground
The match ball will be delivered by members of the military ahead of kick-off in spectacular style, before the teams will be welcomed to the field with a military guard of honour.
Boot It with Summit Vans will have a military theme as one lucky contestant attempts to win £1000 worth of holiday vouchers courtesy of Andrew Earles Holiday by kicking the ball into a Jackal!
There will also be plenty of other military themed activities taking place around the ground.
