Pre-season friendlies

Castleford announced pre-season fixtures against Sheffield Eagles, Wakefield Trinity and Hull FC, with each serving as a testimonial match for Quentin Laulu-Togaga'e, Luke Gale and Joe Westerman respectively.[51] In January, the squad headed for a week-long training camp in Spain,[52] which included a reduced-contact exhibition match against local club Valencia Huracanes in Tavernes de la Valldigna on 18 January.[53][54] Played across four 20-minute quarters, the game saw some Castleford players swapping sides to supplement the Valencia team, while one travelling fan won the opportunity to play for the Tigers.[55] Castleford won the match 50–8.[56][57]
