The defending champions are Wigan Warriors who won the 2023 Grand Final, defeating Leeds Rhinos 50–42. [1]

Five teams form the league and each will play eight fixtures during the regular season, playing each of the other teams twice - home and away. At the end of the regular season, the top four teams will advance to the play-offs which are knock-out semi-finals followed by the grand final. [2]

Unlike 2023, there will not be magic rounds with matches played at neutral venues. The teams will have more home fixtures with the aim of increasing local support. [3]
