The NRL has announced the 2024 Pre-Season Challenge will include matches in Christchurch, Mackay, Queanbeyan, Mudgee and Sunshine Coast, and will also feature three double headers.
 
The 2024 Pre-Season Challenge, which will follow on from the success of last year's inaugural tournament won by Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles, will begin on Thursday, February 15, and end on Sunday, February 25.
 
The pre-season challenge format and points system will remain consistent with 2023, which means there will be $100,000 in prize money up for grabs, split evenly between clubs and players.
 
Teams will once again earn bonus points for tries, line breaks and offloads. Playing squads will be capped at 28 players per week.
 
All matches will be broadcast live and exclusive on Fox Sports and Kayo.
