The current champions are Wakefield Trinity, winners of the 2024 season after beating Toulouse Olympique in the Championship Grand Final.

When Super League began in 1996, the second division continued to operate a system of promotion and relegation with the new competition.

The record crowd for a club game at this level of competition was set in 2017 at KCOM Craven Park for the opening fixture of the season between Hull Kingston Rovers and Bradford Bulls with Rovers winning 54–24 in front of a crowd of 8,817.

The crowd record for regular season attendance was also broken in 2008 with an average of 2,205 spectators at each game.

Following the conclusion of their regular league seasons, the 24 clubs then compete in a play-off series where they split into 3 divisions of 8 based upon league position:[4] On 14 September 2018, an EGM was called to discuss the future of the sport and a change in structure, as the clubs were in favour of scrapping the Super 8s in favour of a more conventional structure.

The Championship clubs then voted for a top 5 playoff being used to decide which team will be promoted to Super League.

This has been the case for all but the four seasons of the Super 8s era where the league leaders were declared Champions and promotion was determined by The Qualifiers.

There have been seven different title sponsors since the league's formation: The official rugby ball supplier is Steeden.

The deal also includes the broadcasting rights to play-off matches and the Million Pound Game.

[citation needed] Clubs in both the Super League and the Championships benefit from the new dual registration system which was introduced for the 2013 season.

The system is aimed at young Super League players who are thought to be not quite ready to make the step up to ‘week in, week out’ Super League first team duties but for whom first team match experience is likely to be beneficial for their development.
