Wigan's season ended in disappointment as their injury ravaged squad proved too thin to take on the challenge of the Widnes pack in the Lancashire Cup Final at Fleetwood. With only 17 fit men Wigan entered the final quarter with a slim 9-6 advantage, courtesy of 3 Sam Heeley penalties, but then conceded 2 late tries and a penalty as Widnes deployed their 7 man bench.
However, they can look back on the campaign with satisfaction having finished 2nd in the Halbro Colts C Division and taking some notable scalps in cup competitions. Additionally 4 of their squad have gained valuable 1st team experience which bodes well for the future of the Wigan club.

| Rugby Chairman's welcome |
WIGAN takes another step forward this coming season 2008-2009 as we continue the development of Colts Rugby at Douglas Valley.
Let's get off to a good start with a commitment to training - the first phase of the sessions on Tuesday and Thursday is with the senior players and will be extremely enjoyable (if hard!!).
