NRL
The National Rugby League (NRL), founded in 1998, is Australia and New Zealand’s premier rugby league club tournament. It includes some clubs from Sydney’s first club rugby league competition, which has been running since 1908. A single New Zealand team also competes in the league. The NRL was founded as a collaborative collaboration between the Australian Rugby League (ARL) and the News Corporation-controlled Super League in the aftermath of the Super League war in the 1990s after both organizations ran premierships concurrently in 1997. In February 2012, the ARL was restructured with an independent board of directors and renamed the Australian Rugby League Commission, with the management of the NRL passing completely to the reconstituted ARL.

How To Watch NRL Trial Games?
From February 18 to February 28, NRL clubs will hold trials on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights, with a 10-day break before the start of the tournament. Fox Sports has obtained the rights to broadcast all 32 NRL trial matches this year for the first time ever. Previously, NRL.com only aired a few pre-season games on their website; however, because of the partnership with Fox Sports, pay TV viewers will have better access than ever to their favorite team during the pre-season.
