Challenge Cup draw: When is it, how to watch and what are the ball numbers?
The home of Leeds United will be the host of this year's semi-finals and Women's Challenge Cup final. The draw will be conducted by former Hull FC player Lee Crooks and Ben Taylor, also known as The Yorkshire Prose for his viral videos of his poems which are written in Yorkshire dialect.
Crooks will make the draw 40 years on from Hull FC's memorable Challenge Cup final replay over Widnes at Elland Road, while Taylor joins BBC Look North and BBC iPlayer from 6:45pm following the Royal Navy's impressive Cup run.
