Super League celebrates its 30th birthday in 2026, marking three decades of unforgettable moments, iconic players, and historic rivalries.

Since its launch in 1996, Super League has been defined by innovation - from the summer season switch and introduction of the video referee, to arrival of French teams, Magic Weekend, IMG Gradings, and much more. And let's not forget Grand Final Night at Old Trafford, which has become one of the biggest events in the rugby league calendar.

As with all sport, Super League has been an emotional rollercoaster for fans of every club; from the highs of a Rivals Round win, late match-winning drama, and lifting silverware, to the lows of relegation, missing out on Play-Offs and being denied Grand Final glory.

Thirty years on, Super League continues to honour its rich history while looking ahead to an exciting future for the sport. 

During our Birthday Month this March and all year-long, we will be honouring the greatest moments, best players and biggest stories from the last 30 seasons of Super League. Keep an eye out and you might just see your favourite moment from the archives.

Stay with us in 2026 to celebrate reaching this proud milestone.
