First batch of clubs submit formal applications for Super League 2026

The first 12 positions will be determined by the club grading process. A seven-strong panel will decide whether there are sufficiently strong applications to add another two clubs to form a 14-team competition in 2026. Applications will now be considered by the panel and a decision will be announced on Thursday, October 16. Existing Super League clubs Huddersfield Giants and Hull FC have applied, along with Championship outfits Bradford Bulls, Doncaster, London Broncos, Oldham, Toulouse, Widnes Vikings and York Knights.
