The Widnes Wildcats had a difficult weekend that saw them slump to two defeats on the road in the Summer Cup competition. They lost 14-3 away to the Kingston Cobras in Hull on Saturday and then were beaten 10-0 on Sunday night by a very strong Blackburn Falcons team in East Lancashire.

Following these results, the Wildcats remain bottom of the Summer Cup table with 3 points from their 8 games to date, although they do still have games in hand over all the other teams in the competition. 

They are next in action this Sunday 30^th July when they take on Grimsby Lightning in their next group game at Silver Blades Widnes.  The game faces off at 4.30pm and admission is free.

There is actually a double header of ice hockey on Sunday at Silver Blades Widnes as the Riverside Raiders play their Puckstop Summer Classic semi-final against the Blackburn-based Wyre Seagulls later the same day in an 8.30pm face off.
