This week’s Thunderbolt: Fan of the Week goes to Hugo, who enjoyed his very first Widnes Vikings match at Sunday’s game against Hunslet.
Hugo was brought along by his family for his first taste of Vikings action, and it’s safe to say he had a fantastic time.
From the excitement of the match to the buzz around the stadium, Hugo soaked up the whole experience — especially getting involved with the Viking Clap alongside the rest of the Widnes faithful.
His family even captured a brilliant video of Hugo joining in, showing just how much he loved being part of the atmosphere on the day.

Introducing new fans to the Vikings family is what the matchday experience is all about, and seeing young supporters like Hugo enjoying their first game is always special.
Everyone at the club hopes Hugo had an unforgettable first visit, and we look forward to seeing him back at the stadium again soon. For now, we’re delighted to recognise him as this week’s Thunderbolt: Fan of the Week.
