The Cougars will be live on Sky twice next season.

Only four games in Co-operative Championship One are scheduled for the box and two of them involve Barry Eaton’s men.

The trip to Dewsbury Rams on Thursday, June 11 will be broadcast by Sky Sports, as will the match when Keighley entertain the same opponents at Cougar Park on Thursday, July 30.

Both matches kick-off at 7.30pm.

Meanwhile, Keighley have arranged a friendly with Halifax at The Shay on Sunday January 18 (3pm).

The game will be sponsored by Link Telecom, who back both clubs, and will be tagged the Link Telecom Challenge.

“We have close links with Keighley, as we recently took over the running of their lottery, and with Link Telecom now sponsoring both clubs it was an obvious game to arrange,” said Fax chief executive Graham Clay.

“Keighley have recruited well during the off-season, and we expect a fiercely competitive game.”

Toulouse Olympique XIII will make their Co-operative Championship debut in front of the Sky cameras against Widnes Vikings on Thursday, March 12.
