Kate Middleton said she was ‘worried about her finger’ but ‘willing to try’ her hand at wheelchair rugby as she turned up  to the Allam Sports Centre in Hull with a bandage on her hand three weeks after injuring herself playing on the trampoline with her children. 

The Princess of Wales, 41, ditched the smart suits as she opted for a tracksuit and headed to meet Disability Rugby League players in East Yorkshire, where she joined a training session with the World Cup winning England wheelchair rugby squad.

Speaking before heading on the court, the Princess told a team member: ‘I’m worried about my finger, but willing to try’. 

But clearly a natural at the sport her injury didn’t hold he back, and Kate quickly scored a try and lifted her hands up to celebrate. 

The bandages appear to be a precaution from her injury earlier this month – when she damaged her fingers trampolining with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis at their home in Windsor.

Showing off her sporty side, the royal didn’t let her apparent injuries stop her as she got into the game. 

The royal first ran around and passed the ball the rugby team, before having a go at the wheelchair game with the England Wheelchair Rugby League – and quickly celebrated a score.

Kate taped up her hand following a recent trampolining injury. 

When visiting a male prison in Surrey earlier this week to support an addiction charity, it was revealed the mother-of-three had hurt her hand trampolining with her children at home.

Despite having to strap her fingers after the playtime injury in their Windsor garden, Kate shook hands with staff at HMP High Down.

It’s far from the first time the royal has been seen sporting a plaster. Kate’s otherwise impeccable image is often marred by the unsightly skin-coloured tape wrapped around one of her fingers or thumbs.

However, she appears to have taped it up ahead of playing sport as a precaution – as she didn’t appear to have bandaged up her hand while meeting Ukrainian refugees in Bracknell.

Upon arrival at the sports centre, Her Royal Highness joined a training session facilitated by members of the world-cup winning England Wheelchair Rugby League squad. 

Wheelchair Rugby League is currently the most inclusive format across Rugby League, providing the opportunity for all to play together regardless of gender or disability. 

England’s Wheelchair Rugby League team were crowned World Champions in November 2022, and in January The Princess of Wales hosted a reception for the team at Hampton Court Palace in recognition of their success.

During the visit, The Princess will also learn more about Physical Disability Rugby League (PDRL), a full contact version of the game adapted for players with physical disabilities who want to access a running version of the sport, and Learning Disability Rugby League (LDRL), a non-competitive version of the sport specifically adapted for those with learning disabilities. 

Kate’s visit will highlight the significant value and impact of Disability Rugby League on its participants, their families, and local communities, and shine a spotlight on the power of sport to tackle inequalities, and support and develop individuals regardless of their circumstances or background
