Halifax Panthers • Championship & Champ 1 2025 Central Funding Amounts.
Here’s a copy Andy paste of who will be getting what.
The Championship and League One Rugby League clubs have found out how much central funding has been proposed and how it will be distributed for the 2025 season.
As we discussed on the radio during the Sheffield Eagles vs Bradford Bulls game at the weekend, the funding will work down from 1st to 13th in the Championship and from 1st to 11th in League One based on where each club sits in the IMG Grading table.
So, the higher your IMG Grading, the more RFL central funding your club will receive.
There has been a slight decrease in the proposed funding with the top Championship club earning just under £150,000 for the 2025 season.
The 13th and bottom-placed Championship club would receive around £85,000, so an incremental difference of around £65,000 between the highest and lowest-placed Championship clubs.
In League One, the central distribution is squeezed further with the highest-placed League One club receiving only £33,000 and the lowest just £18,000. This represents a difference of £16,000 between the highest and lowest-placed League One club.
We worked it out at the weekend that if you shared the total amount of central funding equally, then each of the 24 clubs would receive around £73,000 each.
Unfortunately for the League One clubs, that won't be the case.
What is interesting to note is that promotion from League One to the Championship is worth an extra £50,000, so a great incentive for those clubs who start the League One playoffs this coming weekend.
