Celebrating a Champion: Luke Littler Stadium Night

In a remarkable gesture of tribute, Warrington Wolves has announced that their stadium will temporarily be renamed to Luke Littler Stadium for a special event on February 21, 2025. This honor comes in recognition of Littler's incredible achievement as he clinched the PDC World Championship title at the tender age of 17, defeating renowned player Michael van Gerwen to make history.

The renaming is part of a series of celebrations acknowledging the young champion's remarkable feat, alongside the excitement of their Super League match against the Catalans Dragons. As a lifelong supporter of the Wolves, Littler expressed his gratitude, stating, "It's an absolute honour and I can't thank the club enough".

Littler, now 18, will not only lead his beloved team onto the pitch but will also showcase his World Championship trophy during the half-time break, connecting the worlds of darts and rugby in a unique sporting celebration. The club’s CEO, Karl Fitzpatrick, echoed the sentiment, highlighting Littler's passion for the team and deeming this tribute appropriate for such an emerging talent.

Having already paraded his prestigious trophy at Old Trafford, Littler stands as an inspirational figure, bridging disciplines and bringing joy to his local community. This event is a testament to the growing popularity of darts and the importance of celebrating local heroes in sports.

Fans can look forward to a night of thrilling competition and heartfelt tributes as Warrington Wolves kick off their season while honoring one of the most exciting talents in darts today.
