As one of the main sponsors and training ground for Warrington Wolves, the University of Chester is no stranger to rugby league, and its Warrington campus has now provided the backdrop for a programme celebrating the best of Super League 2009.

Sky Sports Reporter, Angela Powers, used the hi-tech North West Media Centre to film parts of her programme, Super League Season Review.

She explained: “Every year I produce this two-hour show , which features match action and interviews with coaches and captains of every Super League club.

“My theme this year is ‘storytime’. I have a leather bound journal from which I will narrate the story of the Super League season with the Super League trophy in the background.

“The North West Media Centre is the perfect facility in which to film, as it is such a versatile space where I was able to create my own set.”

Super League Season Review will be aired on December 31 at 8pm on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports HD1.
