Five matches from the Super 8 including the inaugural Grand Final were televised live and free-to-view on Premier Sports in 2011. ==History== The Student Rugby League was founded in 1967 when a rugby league team was created at Leeds University by Andrew Cudbertson, Jack Abernathy and Cec Thompson, other teams soon joined in areas of the United Kingdom which lay outside of the games traditional heartlands. The first university game was between Leeds and Liverpool in 1968.
