The Princess of Wales was named patron of the Rugby Football League last year.

As part of her role she attended the men’s quarter-final between England and Papua New Guinea at the DW Stadium.

Her Royal Highness also met England Women, following their group stage victory over Canada, and England’s PDRL side, who won their World Cup as well.
