The 2023 NRL Pre-season Challenge was played between the 9th and 19th February 2023, before a 11-day lead up until the beginning of the 2023 NRL season.[1]
Background
The 2023 pre-season saw the introduction of the inaugural Pre-season Challenge, with bonus points rewarding teams for scoring tries, making line breaks and offloading.[2]
As the 2023 World Club Challenge was hosted in Australia, the competition was incorporated into the final week of the Pre-season Challenge, which also resulted in St Helens participating in the NRL Pre-season Challenge in both weeks.[3]
