Hela Wigmen Soar to New Heights With the Ipswich Jets

Hela Wigmen, Warren Glare and Benjamin Hetra, join fellow PNG players, the Pandia Brothers, Richie and Seb, at the Ipswich Jets.

The announcement of their elevation to the QLD Intrust Cup Club was made in March with Visa issues delaying their departure. With these issues now resolved Glare and Hetra can concentrate on making the most of this professional rugby league career development opportunity.

The key partnership between the QLD based Jets and the PNG based Wigmen, facilitated by their sponsor Kroton (a subsidiary of Kumul Petroleum Holdings) and the Marcus Bai Project, opens up additional pathways to PNG players to a professional rugby league career.

It is hoped that both players make the most of this opportunity and lead the way for others to follow.

QLD PNG Kokomos wish you both every success and we want to let you know that we will all be cheering you on as you further your professional rugby league careers!
