The Premiership Women’s Rugby final on Sunday sees the Saracens, known as the “big bad wolves,” face off against the underdog Trailfinders at the Stoop. With the Saracens having never lost to the Trailfinders in the PWR, they enter the match as heavy favorites, boasting a track record of three titles from five previous finals since 2017.

However, the Trailfinders are not to be underestimated. They made headlines by defeating the three-time defending champions Gloucester-Hartpury in the semi-finals, marking their first playoff appearance after a significant victory against the same team during the regular season. This win ended a Gloucester winning streak dating back to November 2024.

Despite the odds being against them—no fourth-placed team has ever won the title—the Trailfinders back-row Abi Burton expressed confidence, stating, "We aren’t scared... we truly believe that we can win."

The Saracens, fueled by a fierce “dog” mentality, aim to maintain their dominance. Centre Sophie Bridger emphasized the need for an energetic presence and commitment on the pitch. Both teams will bid farewell to key players, with Trailfinders’ Kate Zackary and Saracens’ Rosie Galligan and Marlie Packer leaving their respective clubs.

This final, held at the Stoop for the first time in a decade, will be officiated by Holly Wood, who returns just 86 days after giving birth. The stage is set for a thrilling conclusion to this competitive season.
