Full IMG club grading table 2026: how Leeds Rhinos, Castleford Tigers, Wakefield Trinity and others are ranked

Rhinos retain second place on the ranking table, behind new leaders Trinity, while Tigers have regained an A grade, which guarantees a Super League status. The same clubs as last year occupy the top 14 places, meaning all will remain in the elite division next year.

Clubs are awarded a score out of 20 based on five pillars - fandom, finance, stadium, community and on-field performance. Eight reached the grade A threshold of 15 points, with another 11 earning a B and six being graded C.

From this year the process was not mandatory and eight clubs didn’t submit data. Here’s how the 26 who did were ranked.
