Rugby fans around the world are gearing up for another National Rugby League season, with matches on Mar. 1 to kick off the 2025 season. This season's opening weekend will be held in Las Vegas for the second year in a row in an effort to broaden rugby's appeal to U.

Rugby League in Las Vegas 2025 will be bigger, bolder and better, with more games, more teams, more nations and more opportunities for travelling supporters to take advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Jordan Mailata played rugby league as a kid before switching to pursue a career in the NFL. He became the first player from Australia to start in and win the Super Bowl when he helped the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 on Feb. 9.
