Toronto Wolfpack would have to enter into a new participation agreement to play in Super League next season after their current deal was terminated.

The Canadian club withdrew from Super League last month for financial reasons due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Their results have been expunged, having lost all six of their games. The participation agreement is a deal that all 12 Super League clubs have to agree to before taking part.

In a statement released by Super League, it read: “Super League’s action reflects the seriousness of the breach of contract by Toronto Wolfpack, which has impacted Super League and its member clubs.

“The Wolfpack would now have to enter into a new participation agreement before being able to play in the competition in 2021.

“As previously stated by Super League and the RFL, any application received from the club will be given full and timely consideration.”
