Championship play-off

[edit]
Main article: 2024 RFL League One § Structure changes

Due to structure changes agreed before the season started, the play-off final winners did not automatically gain promotion and had to play a final match against the team that finishes 12th in the 2024 Championship. The winners of the match play in the Championship for 2025 and the losing team play in League One for 2025. Hunslet travelled to Swinton and won 22–20 to return to the Championship, from where they were relegated in 2013.
