At the end of every season players donate kit to Leeds Rhinos Foundation for a sale which raises money to buy presents for youngsters in hospital over the Christmas period. The gifts are handed out during the club’s annual Christmas visit. Players, along with men’s head-coach Brad Arthur, also spent time chatting with patients, parents and staff who face spending Christmas away from home. Here are 19 pictures from this year’s visit.
