Rejected petition A request for a U-Turn on the RFL's decision to change the structure of the Super League and Championship from 2015 onwards

More details

We the under-signed put forward this e-petition to force the RFL to rethink their proposed introduction of a new Super League and Championship structure for the 2015 season.

The current format of licensing has been controversial but has allowed the majority of clubs to plan both financially and in terms of getting crowds in.

The sport of Rugby League is one of our countries many great sports. However the proposed new structure of two leagues of twelve splitting into three leagues of eights is long-winded and complicated, which may lead to potential and current fans and investors turning away from the game.
