​The Man of Steel Awards has changed. The black-tie dinner has been replaced by a two-hour cinematic celebration of the most memorable moments of the Betfred Super League season.

The Man of Steel Awards has changed. The black-tie dinner has been replaced by a two-hour cinematic celebration of the most memorable moments of the Betfred Super League season.   

The best players in the game – past and present - will be among the fans at the revamped Betfred Super League Awards at The Lowry Theatre on Sunday, October 6.  

Hosted by Sky Sports’ Brian Carney and Jenna Brooks, the 1,500 supporters in the audience can expect a mixture of entertaining live interviews with key players and coaches, all built around stunning video footage.  

Super League’s content producers, The City Talking, whose recent work includes the popular Amazon Prime documentary Leeds United: Take Us Home, have crafted the brilliant short films which tell the most engaging stories of the players and personalities who have enriched the 2019 season. 

The evening’s entertainment will focus on the big screen – but the fans will also play a key role in what Super League hopes will be a loud, passionate and atmospheric affair. 

At least a hundred fans from each of the 12 clubs have been invited, and they will sit among their heroes to relive some of the unforgettable moments on the pitch and honour some of the great people in the game. 

Nine awards will be presented on the night – including two new ones, Fans’ Entertainer and Spirit of Super League in association with Ward Hadaway – and as ever, the evening will close with the most important individual awards in our game: The Woman of Steel and The Steve Prescott MBE Man of Steel.
