The Huddersfield Giants are one of the oldest Rugby clubs of either code in the world with a history dating all of the way back to 1864. The town of Huddersfield is also known as ‘Birthplace of Rugby League’ after the historic meeting that happened at the Queen Hotel, when Northern Rugby Clubs agreed to break away from their Southern rivals to form the Northern Union- the forerunner of the modern day Rugby Football League.
The Giants have enjoyed lots of success throughout their history, with multiple League Championships and Challenge Cup victories but things have been somewhat baron in recent times.
The club have a number of nicknames including ‘The Giants’, ‘The Claret and Golds’, ‘The Cowbell Army’ and to older fans as ‘The Fartowners’ due to the club historic ground in the Fartown part of Huddersfield.
Huddersfield are one of the most easily recognisable teams out on the field thanks to their unique Claret and Gold playing strip.
The Giants play at the impressive John Smiths Stadium just outside of the centre of Huddersfield in West Yorkshire so it is no surprise that the club have big rivalries with near neighbours Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield and their biggest rivalry historically with Halifax.
The good news for all fans of the Huddersfield Giants is that you can watch live Huddersfield Giants matches online via our Rugby League live streaming partners.

Location
The Huddersfield Giants are located in the university town of Huddersfield in the Kirklees district of West Yorkshire and it is of course the birthplace of the sport of Rugby League after a group of Northern based Rugby teams decided to break away and form their own version of Rugby at the iconic George Hotel in 1895.
Stadium
Sitting in the almost exact centre of the historic heartlands of the sport, it is no surprise that the majority of teams take a big following with them when taking on the Giants in Huddersfield which is often a good thing as the home side only have a relatively small, but incredibly loyal fanbase.
With the clubs home ground been the John Smiths Stadium and one of the biggest in the league, that can help create a good atmosphere for the teams to perform but when it comes to big derby days, the ground is one of the best places to watch the sport.
The ground is also often used for England internationals with matches against Ireland and New Zealand seeing sell-outs recently.
Rivals
The Giants’ biggest rivalry is with their nearest neighbours Halifax RLFC but due to playing in different leagues for much of the Super League era, a number of other rivalries have developed against both the Bradford Bulls and Wakefield Trinity, 2 other West Yorkshire rivals.
Another local rivalry has developed against the Leeds Rhinos which has been built upon not just the close proximity of the clubs but also due to some great battles out on the field including that historic game where the Rhinos won the League leaders Shield in the last second thanks to a Ryan Hall try.
Colours / Playing Kit
The team are easily recognisable when out on the playing field thanks to the club colours of Claret and Gold.
Whilst the layout and design of the home strip changes almost on a yearly basis, the kit is normally predominantly claret with gold hoops whilst the away kit varies in design and colour.
