EmailRugby league: Crusaders have confirmed their move from south Wales to the Racecourse Ground in Wrexham.
The old Celtic Crusaders club have been taken over by Wrexham FC and will play 11 of their 13 home matches at the Racecourse Ground, including the opening fixture against champions Leeds on January 28.
"North Wales has been starved of major sporting success for too many years and we are confident we can achieve that success in Super League with Crusaders RL," said Wrexham chief executive Paul Retout.
"Bringing Super League to Wrexham is akin to bringing Premiership football to Wales."
Crusaders' other two home games will be held in south Wales so that the club maintain a presence in the region.
