The 2017 NRLB Championship, is the second semi-professional season of Dutch Rugby League Competition.[1] Four teams compete over 6 rounds, after which the two highest enter the Grand Final. The two lowest teams then enter the third-place play-off.
2017 NRLB Championship features four teams, the first year in which this number has taken part, after the foundation of Harderwijk Dolphins in the summer of 2016.[citation needed] This is also the second year since the Netherlands hosted its own domestic competition, following the separation from Belgium.
