The new headquarters for Rugby League in England has opened at Manchester's Etihad Campus as the latest member of the site's "major national and international sporting ecosystem".
The HQ - built by Morgan Sindall Construction - will bring together staff from the RFL's former HQ at Red Hall in Leeds and from its existing office at Quay West in Salford’s MediaCity. It will house 100 RFL staff supporting every level of the game in England, as well as colleagues from Super League (Europe) and will soon also house colleagues from RL Commercial.
The 200-acre Etihad campus is home to Manchester City's Etihad Stadium and to other facilities including the City Football Academy, National Cycling Centre, National Squash Centre and the Manchester Institute of Health and Performance.
