West Wales Raiders have resigned from the Betfred Championship One competition with immediate effect. With the fixtures having already been published, West Wales due to start wth a home game against Oldham on the 19th February, this announcement has plunged the league into some confusion and reduced the number of home games for already sold season tickets and hospitality packages.
The league will now comprise ten sides, and already included bye rounds, but now with the late withdrawal it is possible that some sides may face two consecutive weeks without a game. It´s a sad day for the game as we lose a side who have been part of the competition for the last seven years.
