LIFT-OFF. FOR SUPER LEAGUE

GARY HETHERINGTON has hailed one of the "most significant days" in rugby league's history as clubs discover today how IMG intends to catapult it forward.

The global sports and media company agreed a 12-year strategic partnership with the RFL and Super League in April, tasked with road-mapping a way for the sport to maximise its potential.

Since then they have been consulting stakeholders across rugby league, including clubs, players, fans, and sponsors, before making their proposals for much-needed change.

IMG will present their recommendations to Super League, Championship, and League One clubs for the first time in Manchester today.
