Tote becomes Official Principal Partner of Wigan Warriors Women’s Team

Thursday 26th March 2026

Wigan Warriors are delighted to announce that the Tote now joins the Club as Official Principal Partner of Wigan Warriors Women’s Team and will feature on the front of the 2026 Home and Away playing shirts.

The partnership extension will allow the Tote, whose Headquarters are based in Wigan, to further expand their passion into Rugby League after committing to the Men’s Team back in December 2025.

Women’s Head Coach, Denis Betts, said: “To have the Tote extend their partnership with the Club to both Men’s and Women’s is huge for both the Club and the Women’s game.

“They are a major sponsor and we look forward to taking to the field in the kit next weekend, with the Tote proudly on the front, as we kick start our Betfred Women’s Challenge Cup campaign for the year.”

Head of Partnerships, Rebecca Webb, said: “It’s incredibly rewarding to see our relationship with the Tote continue to grow. This extension reflects not only the strength of our partnership, but also a shared commitment to supporting the development of both the Men’s and Women’s game.

“Having the Tote feature on the front of our Women’s team shirts for the 2026 season is a significant milestone, and it highlights the increasing investment and belief in the women’s programme. We’re proud to be working with a partner that is so closely connected to the town and shares our ambition for success on and off the field.”

Chief Executive of the Tote, Alex Frost, added: “We’re delighted to extend our support to Wigan Warriors Women’s Team and further our commitment to supporting Rugby League. 

“The Warriors are such an integral part of Wigan and it’s exciting for all of us at the Tote to support the club and everything it stands for in our community. We hope both teams have a fantastic season – we are cheering them on!”
