07 BSTSharePrefer the Guardian on GoogleThere are few families with more stories to tell when it comes to the Super League Grand Final than the Sinfields but, even by their lofty standards, this week will take some beating. Leeds has been the epicentre of that story for more than 20 years but this week the focus has moved 10 miles down the road to Wakefield.

He will finish the last leg of his seventh ultramarathon in seven days at the grand final and will carry the match ball into the stadium for Wakefield’s showdown with Warrington Wolves. Waiting for him on the pitch will be his son, who first attended the event shortly after he was born, when Kevin played in the 2004 final for Leeds Rhinos.
Jack has been in the stands for all eight of his father’s Grand Final appearances but, this weekend, the roles will be reversed. “When he planned this last challenge and for it to finish at Old Trafford, I don’t think even he could have imagined that I would be playing in it,” the 22-year-old says with a smile.
” Just as Kevin will no doubt be beaming with pride at his son’s upcoming debut in a Grand Final on Saturday, Jack unsurprisingly possesses similar emotions when asked about his dad’s incredible fundraising efforts, which continued from Wakefield’s stadium on Wednesday morning, with a message of good luck delivered to the Trinity squad.
