The Foxtel Group has secured a multi-year extension with Rugby League Commercial, ensuring Kayo Sports will broadcast every game of the Super League’s upcoming seasons.
With Foxtel Group’s multi-year NRL broadcast rights and the Super League extension, Kayo Sports will be the exclusive platform to stream every game of the season for both top-tier rugby league competitions.
“Super League is one of the premier rugby league competitions in the world and we are very excited that through this renewal, our subscribers can continue to enjoy all the action of the competition," said Rebecca McCloy, Foxtel Group’s executive director of Commercial Sport.
"We are truly the home of international rugby league in Australia and, through our long-term support, have played an important role in growing engagement in the sport.”
Super League continues to be popular among Kayo Sports and Foxtel subscribers with the Round 3 game of the 2025 season between the Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves played in Las Vegas, breaking records across the platform as the most watched ever.
Rhodri Jones, managing director of Rugby League Commercial, was delighted with the rights extension.
"There are such strong links between the world’s two leading Rugby League competitions, and so many familiar names to Australian viewers who now have a key role in Super League." Jones said.
“Like the NRL, our 2025 competition has got off to a flier, and it’s a boost to us all to know there are growing numbers of viewers in Australia."
The deal was negotiated by IMG, Rugby League Commercial’s strategic partner.
