IMG Grading for the British Rugby Football League information
IMG Grading for the Rugby Football League is a set of proposals set out in 2022 by the British Rugby Football League's new strategic partner IMG, in which all clubs playing in the professional levels of the British rugby league system will be graded, with their rank determining which division each club will play. The proposals were accepted by a majority vote of British rugby league stakeholders in 2023 with implementation starting in the 2024 season.
The grading in the new system will see:[1]
Grade A clubs will be guaranteed a place in Super League, and will be exempt relegation.
Grade B clubs will be eligible to participate in Super League, and the highest ranked Grade B clubs will occupy the remaining slots.
Grade C clubs will be ineligible for Super League thus can only compete in the Championship and League One.
Grades will be reassessed annually.
This will be the second attempt to introduce a "Super League licence", with the first being introduced in 2009 and scrapped in 2014 after two cycles.
