Here’s the latest I can share based on current public coverage:
- There has been ongoing discussion about expansion and restructuring of League One, with some clubs and expressions of interest noted in 2024, but concrete expansions or new member announcements for 2025–2026 have not been finalized in widely reported sources.[1][2]
- The league has experienced changes in membership in recent seasons, including clubs withdrawing and the number of teams fluctuating, which has driven discussions about stabilizing the competition size in the near term.[2][3]
- For precise, up-to-date headlines, you may want to check dedicated rugby-league news outlets or the RFL’s official site for any fresh announcements or press releases.[9]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest headlines from specific outlets (e.g., Serious About Rugby League, TotalRL, or the RFL site) and summarize them with links.
