BRADFORD Bulls have renamed their former home after another pair of dedicated club volunteers.
Yesterday Odsal Stadium, the Bulls’ home ground until September 2019, was renamed the Toni Hodgett Stadium.
Today it has been rebranded as the John & Anne Downes Stadium.
Bulls tweeted that they will continue to honour their volunteers with the stadium naming scheme.
👏 | WE are going to continue to 're-name' Odsal Stadium after our incredible volunteers - following a National Lottery initiative!

Bulls took inspiration from a National Lottery initiative in which sporting venues across England and Wales changed their names for a day on Wednesday to honour those who have gone above and beyond during lockdown.
These venues included The Oval cricket ground.
