Ralph Rimmer: RFL chief executive on new twist on Golden Point for Championship clubs. Golden Point made its debut in Super League this year, with two points being taken by the team which scored in extra-time and none for the losing side. Rugby Football League chief executive Ralph Rimmer said: “The clubs were keen to maintain a one-point reward for teams securing a draw, in addition to providing the possibility of extra excitement in Golden Point extra-time. Dewsbury’s ‘home’ fixture against tenants Bradford will be played at Headingley on Sunday, June 21, as a curtain-raiser to a Super League derby between Leeds Rhinos and Wakefield Trinity. Rimmer said: “2019 has been a year of significant progress for Betfred Championship and League One and there’s plenty more to anticipate in 2020.
