RUGBY LEAGUE York chairman Clint Goodchild has hailed an exciting new era for sport in North Yorkshire after the Knights were confirmed as one of the two additional clubs to join an expanded 14-team Betfred Super League for 2026.

The panel was tasked with selecting the two best candidates to join the 12 teams who had already secured their place in the topflight by virtue of the IMG grading scores.

Toulouse and York, who ranked 13th and 14th respectively, were selected from a short list of applicants, with London considered the other viable contender for a return to Super League.
