Get Behind the U21'sWarrington Wolves U21Æs take on Widnes Viking U21Æs in the Senior Academy play-offs at Wilderspool on Sunday 24th August kick off 2.00pm. This is a sudden death game, with the losers going out of the competition, the Wolves finished 4th in the table with 32 points, while their opponents Widnes finished just below in 5th spot with 28 points. The Wolves Academy team was put together at the last minute before the season kicked off by Coach Graham Scott. As originally the Wolves were going to run without an Academy team as a cost-cutting measure, until the RFL announced that all Super League clubs had to have an U21Æs team. That team has never looked back after having a few hiccups at the beginning and has proved themselves as one of the better teams in the competition. Coach Graham Scott has announced his team to face Widnes on Sunday: Lee Patterson Nick Owen Steve Warburton Richard Varkulis Dave Ashton Mike Govin Jamie Durbin Danny Heaton Shane Williams Lee Gardner Tommy Grundy Mike Callan Craig Farrimond Phil Braddish John Pickersgill Steve Pickersgill Chris Tod Richard Varkulis has been a try-scoring sensation with 27 tries in 21 games; Varkulis has also made the most appearances for the U21s this season, 21 out of 22 matches. Lee Patterson has also been another consistent performer with 13 tries from 18 appearances. The Pickersgill brothers Steve and John have each scored 3 tries each and have featured in six games together. COME DOWN AND SUPPORT THE FUTURE WOLVES!

Wolves Capture Dragon
The Wolves are delighted to announce the signing of St. George Illawara DragonÆs front rower, Chris Leikvoll. Leikvoll, 27 who has agreed a 2-year contract, is an EU Passport holder, as his father is English from the North-East of England, therefore making Chris exempt from the overseas quota. He has made 110 NRL appearances for Illawarra/St George Illawarra since his debut in 1997 against the Souths. ChrisÆs career highlight to date is a Grand Final appearance against Brisbane Broncos in 1999. Leikvoll is a Dapto junior who then went on to become the SteelersÆ Under-21Æs player of the year in 1996 before going professional in 1997. At 1.94cm and 105kg, Leikvoll is expected to add even more æbeefÆ to an already solid Wolves pack. Chris and his wife Sharee are expecting their second child this Christmas. Coach Paul Cullen commented,"The driving force behind this recruitment is positional. Chris Leikvoll presents a frame of 1.94cm and 105kg that can play before the line on impact and through the line. He has learnt his trade in the toughest and fastest competition in the world of rugby league and will add a dynamic impact to the way that we will go forward."
