Thousands of fans lined the streets of Leigh to give their team a hero's welcome after winning the Challenge Cup for the first time in more than half a century.
Leigh Leopards secured a dramatic last gasp victory against Hull KR at Wembley Stadium on Saturday afternoon, the first time they had lifted the trophy since 1971.
