Wigan Warriors Announce 2026 Testimonial Season for Liam Marshall
On Saturday, June 14, 2025, coinciding with his 200th appearance for the club, Wigan Warriors confirmed that 2026 will be honoured as the testimonial season for their prolific winger, Liam Marshall .
Marshall, a product of Wigan’s youth system, has exploded into the spotlight since his first-team debut in 2017, becoming the club’s all-time leading try‑scorer in the Super League era, with over 160 tries . His decorated career includes an impressive haul: two Challenge Cups, three League Leaders’ Shields, three Super League titles, and the 2024 World Club Challenge — not to mention appearances for England .
Wigan CEO Kris Radlinski praised Marshall’s quiet leadership and impactful presence on and off the field:
Quietly and diligently, he has become one of the most important figures in our squad… Respected. Valued. Outstanding.”
Head coach Matt Peet, speaking after Marshall’s record-breaking day, added that he “embodies everything” the club stands for, playing a central role in Wigan’s recent successes .
In response, Marshall said:
I’m incredibly honoured and humbled to be granted a testimonial season by the club I’ve supported all my life… I’m looking forward to what promises to be a very special year.”
The testimonial year will feature a range of special events, including a testimonial match—details of which are set to be released in the coming weeks .
Why it matters:
A testimonial season is one of the highest honours a club can bestow—reserved for players who have demonstrated long-standing loyalty and exceptional impact. That Marshall reaches this milestone after exactly 200 appearances is a fitting tribute to his decade of excellence at Wigan.
