Sadly a senior member of Hull Wyke rugby league passed away Tuesday night, Jim Feeney (Chair of Ex Players association) has died today following a short illness.

Jim Feeney was a highly respected man throughout our club, rugby league and the city.

Jim represented Hull Telephones for many years and continued to support the development and growth of Hull Wyke rugby league club.

Jim was one of the "originals" and is behind all the donations that have come every year from the ex players association.

Could we please let all coaches know that we would like a minutes silence before all our games as a mark of respect and thanks for everything he has done for the club for over 50 years. Please inform them of who and why Jim was.

The thoughts and respects of our committee and all our club members go to his family.
