Altre informazioni:
The Halliwell Jones Stadium is a rugby league stadium in Warrington, England, which is the home ground of the Warrington Wolves. It has also staged Challenge Cup semi-finals, the European Nations Final, the National League Grand Finals' Day, two games of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup and four games of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup. It is the 62nd largest stadium in England. Ground was broke at the new site in 2002 and bucked the common trend of modern stadia by including terracing areas rather than being an all-seater stadium, with the South and West stands both containing terracing It also has enormous pitch dimensions of 120 m x 74 m, as requested by Warrington's head coach of the time, Paul Cullen, due to his desire to play expansive rugby. The stadium officially opened in 2004 On 3 March 2011, the club announced that the corners of the East Stand at the stadium would be filled in to create a further 2, 000 spaces made up of seating and terracing for the 2012 season. The stadium capacity, set at 15, 000 for the first sell-out home match against St. Helens in 2012, was increased to 15, 200 and can grow to 15, 693 as the club proves it can handle the bigger crowds and get extra safety certificates. The club has also announced plans to increase the stadium's capacity to around 22, 000 should the need arise.
