We’re under 48 hours away from IMG’s gradings being released and discovering who will play in which league come 2025.

2.50 of the total 20 points available to each club from the game’s new decision makers come through attendances, awarded based upon an average over the last three seasons as follows.

So, over the course of the 2022, 2023 and 2024 campaigns combined, clubs need to have averaged crowds of 7,501 or higher to earn the maximum of 2.50 IMG points.

Below, we take a look at how many of those 2.50 IMG points each expected Super League club will earn, so included in that is Wakefield Trinity – the side expected to be officially promoted come Wednesday morning.

How many IMG points every Super League club’s average attendance will earn them

It’s worth noting that the below are all expectations and NOT official scores. That’s because IMG‘s version of club’s attendances could be different to the one we – and you all – understand.

IMG take attendances based upon the number of fans who actually attend a game. Often, clubs will publish attendance figures which include season ticket holders and matchday ticket holders even if they don’t actually attend the game.
