History

A Wheelchair Rugby League European Championship was held in 2015 as a one off competition with England winning 28–24 against France. Following the 2021 World Cup, the ERL announced plans for a Wheelchair Rugby League European Championship to be held in conjunction with the revamped Men's Rugby League European Championship and the newly formed Women's Rugby League European Championship.
