Castleford Tigers rugby league team has welcomed 'overwhelming' feedback from supporters, following a consultation into its proposed new stadium design.

The club has secured an agreement with developer Waystone for a new stadium at Glasshoughton, which will form part of a wider 335-acre (136-hectare) mixed-use scheme. Leeds-based architects Ramsdens and Partners has designed the venue, and Castleford Tigers now expects to submit detailed plans by mid-October.

Castleford Tigers chief executive Richard Wright said: "The stadium will be the biggest single development in the club's history and it was extremely important that we captured the thoughts and ideas of supporters before finalising the design. "There were a number of common issues which were highlighted and some good ideas that have been presented to the architects."
