Super League XXVI, known as the Betfred Super League XXVI for sponsorship reasons, was the 26th season of the Super League and 127th season of rugby league in Great Britain. The 2021 season was originally scheduled to begin on 11 March 2021, however, on 14 January 2021, it was announced that all clubs had agreed to push the start date back by two weeks, to increase the chances of fans being able to attend matches. St Helens are the reigning champions going into Super League XXVI, after successfully retaining their title against Wigan Warriors, in the Grand Final. Super League XXVI also saw the return of the Magic Weekend, which took place at St James' Park in Newcastle, after it was cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Upon the expulsion of Toronto Wolfpack the previous season, a vacancy was available for the 2021 season. Six eligible teams from the Championship all applied for the vacancy. The six teams were Leigh Centurions, Bradford Bulls, York City Knights, London Broncos, Featherstone Rovers, and Toulouse Olympique. Of those six teams, Leigh were promoted following a unanimous decision by an independent panel. Following a run of 17 successive defeats, Leigh finally got their first win of the season against Salford, winning 32–22. However, this was not enough to lift them off the bottom of the table, and they were immediately relegated back to the championship, following their 6-44 defeat to Hull Kingston Rovers on 5 September. The sport continued to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The first five rounds of matches were all played behind closed doors, and it was only from mid-May that spectators were allowed in the grounds, with attendances limited to 10,000 or 25% of the ground capacity. The Rugby Football League (RFL) anticipated that COVID-19 would have an effect, and made two important changes to the organisation of the season. Firstly, the league table would be decided by win percentage rather than competition points. Secondly, a set of protocols were introduced, allowing for matches to be postponed, if a team had seven or more players from the senior squad unavailable, due to either close contact or a positive COVID-19 test. On 4 September 2021, Catalans Dragons were confirmed League Leaders Shield winners for the first time in the club's history, following their 31–30 victory against St Helens. This also gave Catalans a bye into the Semi finals of the playoffs, and a home tie against the winner of the elimination playoffs, between the lowest ranked team left in the competition, which eventually was Hull KR on 30 September 2021. Catalans won the match 28–10, with tries from Benjamin Garcia, Josh Drinkwater, Arthur Mourgue, Fouad Yaha and Joe Chan to reach their first ever Grand Final, and became the first non English team in Super League era to do so. St Helens won their 3rd Grand Final in a row, (9th title overall), after narrowly beating Catalans Dragons 12-10 at Old Trafford on 9 October 2021. (en)
