Keighley Cougars will not be relegated from the Co-operative Championship this season regardless of their final league position.

Following last year’s strategic review into the Co-operative Championships, all ten Championship One clubs have voted in favour of having the top four promoted at the end of the regular 2012 season.

That will see them being promoted into the Championship to form an expanded 14-team division in 2013, meaning that there will be no relegation from the competition in 2012.

Cougars player-coach Jason Demetriou, who guided his team to promotion from Championship One last season, believes a 14-team Championship can work.

He said: “I think a 14-team Championship is sustainable with the right support from the RFL and the Super League clubs.”
