On March 17, 2026, the National Rugby League (NRL) announced a new partnership with Hunter Sports Centre (HSC), establishing Lake Macquarie as a major home base for rugby league development in northern NSW. Previously, on February 25, 2026, discussions surrounding rugby league's interchange rules noted that current regulations permit only four players to be activated, effectively sidelining two others once the fourth is introduced, continuing a history of fluid rule changes for the sport. This followed the NRL's sustained financial success, with revenues increasing by over A$100 million year-on-year to achieve new highs in both revenue and operating profit, as reported on February 23, 2026. Earlier, on February 12, 2026, the NRL partnered with National Collegiate Rugby’s (NCR) high-performance program to finalize the men’s and women’s select side rosters for NCR's representation in the Premier Division of the 2026 NRL Vegas 9s Festival.
