The 2024 Super League season (referred to as the Betfred Super League for sponsorship reasons) is the 29th season of the Super League and 130th season of rugby league in Great Britain.
Wigan Warriors are the defending champions, having beaten Catalans Dragons in the Grand Final, to win their sixth Super League title.[1]
London Broncos were promoted from the Championship, having beaten Toulouse Olympique in the Championship Grand Final.[2]
During the opening round of fixtures on 15–17 February, a total of 13 cards (4 red and 9 yellow) were issued across the six games, which set a new record for most cards shown during the first round. Another record saw a total combined attendance of 76,782 fans which was 10% higher than last season's opening games.
At the end of the 2023 season, IMG and the Rugby Football League (RFL) released initial gradings, indicating which league clubs would likely be playing in from the 2025 system. This transition to the new gradings-based system means there will be no automatic relegation as a result of finishing 12th from 2024.
In a major change for the 2024 season for the first time every fixture from the 27 regular rounds as well as the play-offs will be broadcast live on Sky Sports who have exclusive rights to two fixtures per round 4 being shown on a new streaming service, SuperLeague+.[3] The games televised by Sky Sports between round 1 and round 15 were confirmed prior to the start of the season.[4] On 7 February, BBC Sport announced a three-year deal with the league, replacing Channel 4 as the league's free-to-air partner.[5] Ten games per season will be shown live on television, with a further five shown on iPlayer, the BBC's streaming platform. The deal ended the BBC's Super League Show after 25 years, with condensed highlights of all games being added to iPlayer within 24 hours.
The league comprises 12 teams. The regular season comprises 27 rounds. Wigan Warriors are the defending champions after winning the 2023 Grand Final. Wakefield Trinity finished bottom in 2023 and were relegated to the Championship for 2024, they were replaced by promoted London Broncos who won the 2023 Championship Grand Final after finishing 5th in the table.
If a match ends in a draw after 80 minutes, then a further 10 minutes of golden point extra time is played, to determine a winner (five minutes each way). The first team to score either a try, penalty goal or drop goal during this period, will win the match. However, if there are no further scores during the additional 10 minutes period, then the match will end in a draw.
The round 10 game between Leigh Leopards and Castleford Tigers on 4 May 2024, finished 28–28 after 80 minutes, after Castleford scored a last minute try to level the scores. The game then went to extra time, with the only real chance coming in the 8th added minute, as Matt Moylan's drop goal attempt hit the post. Neither team could score any points, so the game ended as a draw.
The round 16 game between Leeds Rhinos and London Broncos on 6 July 2024, finished 16–16 after 80 minutes, after Leeds scored a late try to level the scores. The game then went to extra time, with the only chance coming in the 4th added minute, as Brodie Croft kicked the winning drop goal to win the match for Leeds 17–16.
The round 16 fixture between Hull Kingston Rovers and Catalans Dragons on 6 July 2024, finished 14–14 after 80 minutes, as Rovers kicked a late penalty goal to level the scores. The game then went to extra time, but neither team could score any points during the first period. With less than 3 minutes of the second period remaining, Theo Fages kicked the winning drop goal to win the match for Catalans 15–14.
