2018 RFL Championship season results

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Championship is the second-tier rugby league competition in the United Kingdom. The 2018 season began on 2 February.[1]

The regular season was played over 23 round-robin fixtures, where each of the twelve teams involved in the competition played each other twice, once at home and once away. Teams also played one extra match on the Summer Bash Weekend.[2]

The play-offs commenced after the round-robin fixtures. The top four teams in the Championship qualified for "The Qualifiers", along with the bottom four teams in the Super League. Each team's points totals were reset to zero and each team played against each other once. The top three teams qualified automatically for the Super League in 2019, the fourth and fifth-placed teams contested the "Million Pound Game" at the venue of the fourth-placed team, with the winner also earning a place in the Super League for 2019, while the losing team and the bottom three teams entered the Championship in 2019.[3]

The fifth-twelfth placed teams in the Championship in 2018 contested the "Championship Shield", where each team played seven extra games, retaining their original points. The top four teams contested play-offs, with the first-placed team facing the fourth-placed team and the second-placed team facing the third-placed team; The two winning teams then contested the Championship Shield Grand Final.[3] As the Championship was expanding to 14 teams in the 2019 season, the bottom team was not automatically relegated to League 1 in 2019, instead they faced the losing finalist in the League 1 promotion final in a play-off.[4]
