From the administrators' statement
On 10 February 2026, the Company’s Directors were referred to Ideal Corporate Solutions Limited by a professional advisor to a former officer of the Company to help advise on the options available for the Company.
As stated above, Halifax Rugby League Football Club Limited was wound up following a petition issued by HMRC. Following further review, it appears that the HMRC petition debt related in part or in full to the activities of Halifax RLFC (Trading) Ltd as that had been the principal trading Company for a number of years. However, The RFL had already terminated the Club’s membership, and all players had their contracts terminated. Therefore, it was critical that a swift sale of the company’s assets was completed so that the activities of the Club could be rescued and could compete in the Championship 2026 season.
On 22 February 2026, the Company formally engaged Ideal Corporate Solutions to assist the Directors to place the Company into Administration.
