The '''Castleford Tigers''' are a professional [[rugby league]] club in [[Castleford]], [[West Yorkshire]], [[England]]. They compete in the [[Super League]], the top-level professional rugby league club competition in [[United Kingdom|Britain]].
Castleford have won the [[Challenge Cup]] four times but have never won the [[List of British rugby league champions|League Champonship]].
The club have rivalries with neighbours [[Featherstone Rovers]] and [[Wakefield Trinity]]. They have played home games at [[Wheldon Road]] since 1927, after moving from the Sandy Desert in Lock Lane. The club's traditional home colours are black and amber.
== History ==
=== 1896–1906: First Castleford club ===
[[File:Castleford Tigers display Castleford Forum Museum.jpg|thumb|170px|Castleford Tigers memorabilia at the Castleford Forum Museum]]
[[Castleford RFC (1896)|Castleford RFC]] joined the [[Rugby Football League|Northern Rugby Football Union]] for the [[1896–97 Northern Rugby Football Union season|1896–97 season]], its second and remained in the ranks of the semi-professionals until the end of the [[1905–06 Northern Rugby Football Union season|1905–06 season]]. Not much is known about the original Castleford club, except that they have no connection with the present Castleford Tigers RLFC.
=== 1926–1950s: Establishment of second club ===
Castleford joined the league for the [[1926–27 Northern Rugby Football League season|1926–27 season]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000324/19260218/004/0002 |title=Castleford's promotion |newspaper=[[Hull Daily Mail]] |date=18 February 1926 |page=2 |issue=((12,597)) |url-access=subscription |via=[[British Newspaper Archive]]}}</ref> Many official records state that they were founded at this time but they had played successfully in the lower [[RFL Yorkshire Cup|Yorkshire]] [[Rugby league county cups|County Cup]] for several years before this date. They actually joined the League "code" around 1920 and played in these early years at the Sandy Desert ground, which is now used by amateur club [[Castleford Lock Lane]] youth and junior teams. The club went professional in 1926 and moved to their current home ground on [[Wheldon Road]] in 1927.
The club soon started to make a mark on northern rugby, winning their first major trophy when they topped the [[Rugby league county leagues|Yorkshire League]] in 1932, followed by victory in the [[Challenge Cup]] in 1935. In 1938, they made it to the Championship finals, but failed to take the cup. The [[Second World War]] meant the league was suspended soon after, and Castleford officially abstained from league competition until the 1944–45 season.
=== 1960–1972: Success ===
Castleford finished fourth in the national league in the 1962/63 season. The following season they lost 7–5 to [[Widnes Vikings|Widnes]] in the Challenge Cup semi-final replay at [[Belle Vue (Wakefield)|Belle Vue]], [[Wakefield]] in front of a 28,700 crowd after drawing at [[Station Road, Swinton|Station Road]], [[Swinton, Greater Manchester|Swinton]] in the first meeting of the two clubs. Under the direction of coach [[George Clinton (rugby league)|George Clinton]], Castleford won many fans in the '60s by playing an open and free-flowing style of rugby, earning them the nicknames "Classy Cas" and "High Speed Cas", the latter playing off the slogan for [[British Gas]] in use at the time.
Castleford picked up where they left off when they were again beaten in the Championship finals in 1969, this time conceding defeat to arch-rivals Leeds. However, this loss seemed to spur the team on, and 1969 ([[Salford Red Devils|v. Salford]]) and 1970 ([[Wigan Warriors|v. Wigan]]) saw Castleford win the [[Challenge Cup]] for two consecutive years, with clubs legends [[Alan Hardisty]] and [[Keith Hepworth]] leading the team.
=== 1973–1995: Consistency ===
[[John Sheridan (rugby league)|John Sheridan]] was appointed head coach in 1973 for a spell. Castleford's finished a respectable ninth in a one-division table but Sheridan stepped down following criticism from fans. During the late 1970s Castleford edged up the league, and in 1985 they made it to the Premiership final, where they were beat by [[Hull Kingston Rovers]]. A Yorkshire Cup defeat by at the beginning of the following season to [[Hull Kingston Rovers]] was bettered with a 15–14 triumph at Wembley again with [[Hull Kingston Rovers]] being the opponents . They finished consistently high over the next few years, and finished in the top four clubs in the Championship for four years during 1990–1995.
[[Darryl van der Velde]] took Castleford to the Challenge Cup final at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley]] in 1992 where they were defeated by [[Wigan Warriors|Wigan]]. A year later, Darryl van der Velde left to become chief executive of the [[South Queensland Crushers]], he was succeeded by his assistant [[John Joyner]].
Through the Darryl van der Velde and early Joyner years Castleford were lauded for their style and were labelled 'Classy Cas'. This enjoyable playing style was to come to fruition most spectacularly in 1994, when Castleford were dominating the league. As well as defeating a legendary [[Wigan Warriors|Wigan]] team to take the [[League Cup (rugby league)|Regal Trophy]] 33–2, they were also semi-finalists in the [[Challenge Cup]] and were also narrowly defeated in the Premiership final. That season John Joyner, was named Coach-of-the-Year by the RFL. [[St John Ellis]] scored a then club record 40 league tries over the 1993–94 season.
=== 1996–2004: Super League era ===
When a [[Super League]] was suggested, Castleford resisted a merger with [[Wakefield Trinity]] and [[Featherstone Rovers]], and became a founder member of the [[Super League]] in 1996. The team performed weakly at the start of the season causing the resignation of coach [[John Joyner]], the team avoided relegation by a whisker in 1997 following the appointment of [[Stuart Raper]].
The next season, they managed to frustrate the bleak predictions of pundits to move up the league, finishing sixth at the end of the season, after putting in some good performances and pleasing their fans with a sprinkling of victories.
In 1999, they continued on this upward trajectory, finishing fifth, as well as making the semi-finals of both the [[Challenge Cup]] and the Grand Final play-offs. This became one of the most famous seasons in the clubs recent past, with fans still remembering it with reverence. The team included many home grown players such as current assistant [[Danny Orr]], and included that years [[Man of Steel Award|Man of Steel]] winner [[Adrian Vowles]]. In 2000, the rise seemed to stall, as they repeated their fifth-place ranking and made the play-offs for a consecutive season. Raper left Castleford midway through the 2001 campaign to take charge of Wigan, his assistant [[Graham Steadman]] took over the reins as head coach.
Castleford made the semi-final of the [[Challenge Cup]] in 2002, however the team was to fall down the table over the years to come. [[Gary Mercer]] guided Castleford to five wins in their last 10 games after replacing Graham Steadman in 2004 but it was too little to save them from the drop as Castleford were relegated for the first time in the club's history. From the introduction of two divisions for the [[1973–74 Northern Rugby Football League season]] Castleford had spent 32 years in the top flight of British rugby league. Gary Mercer left the club following their relegation from Super League.
=== 2005–2007: Life in the second tier of Rugby League ===
[[Dave Woods (rugby league coach)|Dave Woods]] was appointed head coach and Castleford finished second in the [[RFL Championship|Co-Operative Championship]] in 2005 and were back in the [[Super League]] via play-offs following victory in the playoff final, as well as competing in the [[Northern Rail Cup]] final, where they lost to [[Hull Kingston Rovers]].
[[Terry Matterson]] joined Castleford in November 2005 in replacement of Woods. Castleford were celebrated for playing a good brand of Rugby League however it was not good enough to stop them from contesting a relegation dog fight which was to culminate in a historic match at Wakefield Trinity's [[Belle Vue (Wakefield)|Belle Vue]], dubbed 'The Battle of Belle Vue'. It was a fight to stay in the league, and when Castleford lost to [[Wakefield Trinity]], it confirmed their relegation. Many Castleford fans do not accept this relegation and it became a grave point of contention with the governing body. Castleford were relegated from second bottom in front of the newly inducted French side, [[Catalans Dragons]], who had been given immunity from relegation that season, and behind Wigan who had been found guilty of a breach of the salary cap rules.
In 2007, Castleford again made a quick return to [[Super League]] as they finished top of the Championship with only one loss all season and defeated [[Widnes Vikings|Widnes]] 42 – 10 in the [[RFL Championship|Co-Operative Championship]] play-off final. Castleford finished bottom of Super League in 2008, but were not relegated due to the newly in place franchise rules.
=== 2009–2012: Re-establishment in Super League ===
In 2009, Castleford saw a brief return to success by reaching the Grand Final play-offs for the first time since [[Super League VII]] and made the semi-final of the [[Challenge Cup]] in 2011 before being knocked out by [[Leeds Rhinos|Leeds]] in an 8–10 defeat after extra time.
Terry Matterson stepped down at the end of the 2010/11 season to take up a coaching role in Australia and was replaced by former [[St Helens R.F.C.|St. Helens]] coach [[Ian Millward]]. Millward released by mutual consent on 9 April 2013 after a poor run of results with 1 win in 18 games and with the team at the bottom of the Super League table. [[Daryl Powell]] was appointed coach in May 2013 taking over from assistant coach [[Danny Orr]], who had been in temporary charge of the club.
=== 2013–2021: Daryl Powell era ===
Under Daryl Powell and Danny Orr, the club has again started to see success on and off the field. The 2014 side were again lauded as Classy Cas for their fast-paced and exciting style, with home grown players such as club captain [[Michael Shenton]], [[Daryl Clark]], Adam Milner, Oliver Holmes, Craig Huby and [[Andy Lynch (rugby league)|Andy Lynch]], who was returning to the club. The side reached the Challenge Cup final in August 2014, losing to local rivals Leeds 23–10, watched by a crowd of 77,914 at [[Wembley Stadium]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/28884420|title=Challenge Cup final: Castleford Tigers 10–23 Leeds Rhinos|date=23 August 2014|work=BBC Sport|access-date=29 July 2017}}</ref> The side would eventually finish 4th in Super League and qualify for the play-offs. They were beaten 41 – 0 by St. Helens in their first game and therefore granted a second chance at progressing with a home tie against [[Warrington Wolves|Warrington]]. They were beaten 14 – 30 and therefore knocked out of the play-offs. On 29 September 2015, the club announced the death of chairman Jack Fulton.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/news/13995/10012159/tributes-for-castleford-chairman-jack-fulton-who-dies-aged-82 |title=Tributes for Castleford chairman Jack Fulton, who dies aged 83 |date=30 September 2015 |website=SkySports.com |publisher=[[Sky Sports]] |access-date=10 March 2016}}</ref> In 2017, the Tigers enjoyed a phenomenal 23 game regular season as they finished 10 points clear at the top of the table prior to the split having won 20 and losing just 3 of their games. They went into the Super 8's having already secured a top four playoff spot by the end of the Super 8's and winning the League Leaders' Shield in the process. In the semifinal against St Helens, [[Luke Gale]]—just days after undergoing an emergency [[appendectomy]]—kicked a drop-goal in extra time to send Cas to their first Grand Final with a 23–22 win. They were defeated by Leeds Rhinos 24–6 with a late consolation score coming in the last minute to spare Castleford being the first team to fail to score in a Grand Final. Gale was voted [[Man of Steel Awards|Steve Prescott Man of Steel]], while Powell picked up the Coach of the Year award for the second time having previously won in 2014.
In 2017, Castleford finished top of the table for the first time in their 91-year history and won the league leaders shield.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2017/aug/17/castleford-wakefield-super-8s-super-league-match-report|title=Castleford secure first league title after overpowering Wakefield|date=17 August 2017|newspaper=The Guardian}}</ref> On 7 October, Castleford played in their first grand final since 1969 against [[Leeds Rhinos]].

Castleford finished the [[Super League XXIV]] season in 5th place on the table. Castleford reached the second week of the 2019 Super League finals Play-Offs where they were defeated by eventual Grand Finalists [[Salford Red Devils]] 22–0 in the elimination semi-final.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/salford-vs-castleford/live/52308/|title=Salford Red Devils 22–0 Castleford Tigers recap|website=Sky Sports}}</ref>
In the [[2020 Super League season]], the club finished a disappointing ninth on the table, their lowest finish since 2013. Despite Castleford's poor season, Paul McShane won the 2020 [[Man of Steel Awards|Man of Steel]] award.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.superleague.co.uk/article/1790/season-review-castleford-tigers/|title=Season Review Castleford|website=www.superleague.co.uk|accessdate=30 April 2021}}</ref>
On 5 June 2021, Castleford reached the [[2021 Challenge Cup Final]] after defeating [[Warrington Wolves|Warrington]] 35–20.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/57345934/|title=Challenge Cup semi-final: Castleford Tigers beat Warrington 35–20 to set up St Helens final|work=BBC Sport|accessdate=6 June 2021}}</ref>

Castleford finished the [[2021 Super League season]] in 7th place and missed out on the playoffs.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/news/12204/12415217/terry-oconnors-2021-betfred-super-league-season-review/|title=Terry O'Connor's 2021 Betfred Super League season review|website=www.skysports.com}}</ref>
===Lee Radford era===
In the 2022 Super League season, Castleford started the year poorly before reaching the playoff places towards the back end of the season. In the final match of the year, Castleford lost 14–6 against [[Leeds Rhinos|Leeds]] to finish 7th with Leeds taking their place in the playoffs.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/leeds-vs-castleford/57450/|title=Super League: Dramatic late Aidan Sezer try sends Leeds Rhinos into play-offs at expense of Castleford Tigers|website=www.skysports.com|accessdate=7 October 2022}}</ref>
Castleford started the 2023 Super League season in similar fashion to the 2022 season losing their opening three games.

=== 1926–present: Wheldon Road ===
[[File:Wheldonroadmainstand.jpg|thumb|right|Wheldon Road]]
Wheldon Road was built in 1926 originally to be the home of [[Castleford Town F.C.]] Castleford RLFC moved in for 1927 after playing their first season of rugby league across the river where [[Castleford Lock Lane]] now play their home games. Its record attendance was in 1935 when 25,449 fans watched Cas play [[Hunslet R.L.F.C.|Hunslet]] in the Challenge Cup third round. In 2015 it was announced that they would be leaving Wheldon Road and moving to a new stadium in [[Glasshoughton]].

=== Axiom ===
The Lateral Property group submitted a planning application for a proposed £135 million development and [[Five Towns Stadium]] in [[Glasshoughton]]. Outline planning permission was given to the development in 2015, with Reserved Matters applications to follow. In early 2018, Lateral Property Group announced that site had been renamed Axiom, working with partner Highgrove Plc,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk/news/video-exclusive-new-name-for-five-towns-park-development-as-more-images-of-scheme-emerge-1-9019924|title=VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: New name for Five Towns Park development as more images of scheme emerge|website=www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk}}</ref> a scheme which would include food, a country park and an omni-retail experience. Numerous planning applications have been submitted through Wakefield MDC Planning Department to discharge conditions as well as amend the scheme slightly, with a Reserved Matters application for Phase 1 and 2a of the work approved. The schedule provided by the developers is that work on supporting roads and groundworks will begin in Summer/Autumn 2018 with the stadium to be completed in time for the 2021 season. In July 2018, an application was submitted to increase the capacity of the proposed ground from 10,000 to 10,245.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://planning.wakefield.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?keyVal=PCGM1TQQLLI00&activeTab=summary|title=Non-material amendment to vary the wording of condition 8 of approved Planning Application 16/01544/FUL |website=planning.wakefield.gov.uk}}</ref>

The '''Castleford Tigers''' are a professional [[rugby league]] club in [[Castleford]], [[West Yorkshire]], [[England]]. They compete in the [[Super League]], the top-level professional rugby league club competition in [[United Kingdom|Britain]].
Castleford have won the [[Challenge Cup]] four times but have never won the [[List of British rugby league champions|League Champonship]].
The club have rivalries with neighbours [[Featherstone Rovers]] and [[Wakefield Trinity]]. They have played home games at [[Wheldon Road]] since 1927, after moving from the Sandy Desert in Lock Lane. The club's traditional home colours are black and amber.
== History ==
=== 1896–1906: First Castleford club ===
[[File:Castleford Tigers display Castleford Forum Museum.jpg|thumb|170px|Castleford Tigers memorabilia at the Castleford Forum Museum]]
[[Castleford RFC (1896)|Castleford RFC]] joined the [[Rugby Football League|Northern Rugby Football Union]] for the [[1896–97 Northern Rugby Football Union season|1896–97 season]], its second and remained in the ranks of the semi-professionals until the end of the [[1905–06 Northern Rugby Football Union season|1905–06 season]]. Not much is known about the original Castleford club, except that they have no connection with the present Castleford Tigers RLFC.
=== 1926–1950s: Establishment of second club ===
Castleford joined the league for the [[1926–27 Northern Rugby Football League season|1926–27 season]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000324/19260218/004/0002 |title=Castleford's promotion |newspaper=[[Hull Daily Mail]] |date=18 February 1926 |page=2 |issue=((12,597)) |url-access=subscription |via=[[British Newspaper Archive]]}}</ref> Many official records state that they were founded at this time but they had played successfully in the lower [[RFL Yorkshire Cup|Yorkshire]] [[Rugby league county cups|County Cup]] for several years before this date. They actually joined the League "code" around 1920 and played in these early years at the Sandy Desert ground, which is now used by amateur club [[Castleford Lock Lane]] youth and junior teams. The club went professional in 1926 and moved to their current home ground on [[Wheldon Road]] in 1927.
The club soon started to make a mark on northern rugby, winning their first major trophy when they topped the [[Rugby league county leagues|Yorkshire League]] in 1932, followed by victory in the [[Challenge Cup]] in 1935. In 1938, they made it to the Championship finals, but failed to take the cup. The [[Second World War]] meant the league was suspended soon after, and Castleford officially abstained from league competition until the 1944–45 season.
=== 1960–1972: Success ===
Castleford finished fourth in the national league in the 1962/63 season. The following season they lost 7–5 to [[Widnes Vikings|Widnes]] in the Challenge Cup semi-final replay at [[Belle Vue (Wakefield)|Belle Vue]], [[Wakefield]] in front of a 28,700 crowd after drawing at [[Station Road, Swinton|Station Road]], [[Swinton, Greater Manchester|Swinton]] in the first meeting of the two clubs. Under the direction of coach [[George Clinton (rugby league)|George Clinton]], Castleford won many fans in the '60s by playing an open and free-flowing style of rugby, earning them the nicknames "Classy Cas" and "High Speed Cas", the latter playing off the slogan for [[British Gas]] in use at the time.
Castleford picked up where they left off when they were again beaten in the Championship finals in 1969, this time conceding defeat to arch-rivals Leeds. However, this loss seemed to spur the team on, and 1969 ([[Salford Red Devils|v. Salford]]) and 1970 ([[Wigan Warriors|v. Wigan]]) saw Castleford win the [[Challenge Cup]] for two consecutive years, with clubs legends [[Alan Hardisty]] and [[Keith Hepworth]] leading the team.
=== 1973–1995: Consistency ===
[[John Sheridan (rugby league)|John Sheridan]] was appointed head coach in 1973 for a spell. Castleford's finished a respectable ninth in a one-division table but Sheridan stepped down following criticism from fans. During the late 1970s Castleford edged up the league, and in 1985 they made it to the Premiership final, where they were beat by [[Hull Kingston Rovers]]. A Yorkshire Cup defeat by at the beginning of the following season to [[Hull Kingston Rovers]] was bettered with a 15–14 triumph at Wembley again with [[Hull Kingston Rovers]] being the opponents . They finished consistently high over the next few years, and finished in the top four clubs in the Championship for four years during 1990–1995.
[[Darryl van der Velde]] took Castleford to the Challenge Cup final at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley]] in 1992 where they were defeated by [[Wigan Warriors|Wigan]]. A year later, Darryl van der Velde left to become chief executive of the [[South Queensland Crushers]], he was succeeded by his assistant [[John Joyner]].
Through the Darryl van der Velde and early Joyner years Castleford were lauded for their style and were labelled 'Classy Cas'. This enjoyable playing style was to come to fruition most spectacularly in 1994, when Castleford were dominating the league. As well as defeating a legendary [[Wigan Warriors|Wigan]] team to take the [[League Cup (rugby league)|Regal Trophy]] 33–2, they were also semi-finalists in the [[Challenge Cup]] and were also narrowly defeated in the Premiership final. That season John Joyner, was named Coach-of-the-Year by the RFL. [[St John Ellis]] scored a then club record 40 league tries over the 1993–94 season.
=== 1996–2004: Super League era ===
When a [[Super League]] was suggested, Castleford resisted a merger with [[Wakefield Trinity]] and [[Featherstone Rovers]], and became a founder member of the [[Super League]] in 1996. The team performed weakly at the start of the season causing the resignation of coach [[John Joyner]], the team avoided relegation by a whisker in 1997 following the appointment of [[Stuart Raper]].
The next season, they managed to frustrate the bleak predictions of pundits to move up the league, finishing sixth at the end of the season, after putting in some good performances and pleasing their fans with a sprinkling of victories.
In 1999, they continued on this upward trajectory, finishing fifth, as well as making the semi-finals of both the [[Challenge Cup]] and the Grand Final play-offs. This became one of the most famous seasons in the clubs recent past, with fans still remembering it with reverence. The team included many home grown players such as current assistant [[Danny Orr]], and included that years [[Man of Steel Award|Man of Steel]] winner [[Adrian Vowles]]. In 2000, the rise seemed to stall, as they repeated their fifth-place ranking and made the play-offs for a consecutive season. Raper left Castleford midway through the 2001 campaign to take charge of Wigan, his assistant [[Graham Steadman]] took over the reins as head coach.
Castleford made the semi-final of the [[Challenge Cup]] in 2002, however the team was to fall down the table over the years to come. [[Gary Mercer]] guided Castleford to five wins in their last 10 games after replacing Graham Steadman in 2004 but it was too little to save them from the drop as Castleford were relegated for the first time in the club's history. From the introduction of two divisions for the [[1973–74 Northern Rugby Football League season]] Castleford had spent 32 years in the top flight of British rugby league. Gary Mercer left the club following their relegation from Super League.
=== 2005–2007: Life in the second tier of Rugby League ===
[[Dave Woods (rugby league coach)|Dave Woods]] was appointed head coach and Castleford finished second in the [[RFL Championship|Co-Operative Championship]] in 2005 and were back in the [[Super League]] via play-offs following victory in the playoff final, as well as competing in the [[Northern Rail Cup]] final, where they lost to [[Hull Kingston Rovers]].
[[Terry Matterson]] joined Castleford in November 2005 in replacement of Woods. Castleford were celebrated for playing a good brand of Rugby League however it was not good enough to stop them from contesting a relegation dog fight which was to culminate in a historic match at Wakefield Trinity's [[Belle Vue (Wakefield)|Belle Vue]], dubbed 'The Battle of Belle Vue'. It was a fight to stay in the league, and when Castleford lost to [[Wakefield Trinity]], it confirmed their relegation. Many Castleford fans do not accept this relegation and it became a grave point of contention with the governing body. Castleford were relegated from second bottom in front of the newly inducted French side, [[Catalans Dragons]], who had been given immunity from relegation that season, and behind Wigan who had been found guilty of a breach of the salary cap rules.
In 2007, Castleford again made a quick return to [[Super League]] as they finished top of the Championship with only one loss all season and defeated [[Widnes Vikings|Widnes]] 42 – 10 in the [[RFL Championship|Co-Operative Championship]] play-off final. Castleford finished bottom of Super League in 2008, but were not relegated due to the newly in place franchise rules.
=== 2009–2012: Re-establishment in Super League ===
In 2009, Castleford saw a brief return to success by reaching the Grand Final play-offs for the first time since [[Super League VII]] and made the semi-final of the [[Challenge Cup]] in 2011 before being knocked out by [[Leeds Rhinos|Leeds]] in an 8–10 defeat after extra time.
Terry Matterson stepped down at the end of the 2010/11 season to take up a coaching role in Australia and was replaced by former [[St Helens R.F.C.|St. Helens]] coach [[Ian Millward]]. Millward released by mutual consent on 9 April 2013 after a poor run of results with 1 win in 18 games and with the team at the bottom of the Super League table. [[Daryl Powell]] was appointed coach in May 2013 taking over from assistant coach [[Danny Orr]], who had been in temporary charge of the club.
=== 2013–2021: Daryl Powell era ===
Under Daryl Powell and Danny Orr, the club has again started to see success on and off the field. The 2014 side were again lauded as Classy Cas for their fast-paced and exciting style, with home grown players such as club captain [[Michael Shenton]], [[Daryl Clark]], Adam Milner, Oliver Holmes, Craig Huby and [[Andy Lynch (rugby league)|Andy Lynch]], who was returning to the club. The side reached the Challenge Cup final in August 2014, losing to local rivals Leeds 23–10, watched by a crowd of 77,914 at [[Wembley Stadium]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/28884420|title=Challenge Cup final: Castleford Tigers 10–23 Leeds Rhinos|date=23 August 2014|work=BBC Sport|access-date=29 July 2017}}</ref> The side would eventually finish 4th in Super League and qualify for the play-offs. They were beaten 41 – 0 by St. Helens in their first game and therefore granted a second chance at progressing with a home tie against [[Warrington Wolves|Warrington]]. They were beaten 14 – 30 and therefore knocked out of the play-offs. On 29 September 2015, the club announced the death of chairman Jack Fulton.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/news/13995/10012159/tributes-for-castleford-chairman-jack-fulton-who-dies-aged-82 |title=Tributes for Castleford chairman Jack Fulton, who dies aged 83 |date=30 September 2015 |website=SkySports.com |publisher=[[Sky Sports]] |access-date=10 March 2016}}</ref> In 2017, the Tigers enjoyed a phenomenal 23 game regular season as they finished 10 points clear at the top of the table prior to the split having won 20 and losing just 3 of their games. They went into the Super 8's having already secured a top four playoff spot by the end of the Super 8's and winning the League Leaders' Shield in the process. In the semifinal against St Helens, [[Luke Gale]]—just days after undergoing an emergency [[appendectomy]]—kicked a drop-goal in extra time to send Cas to their first Grand Final with a 23–22 win. They were defeated by Leeds Rhinos 24–6 with a late consolation score coming in the last minute to spare Castleford being the first team to fail to score in a Grand Final. Gale was voted [[Man of Steel Awards|Steve Prescott Man of Steel]], while Powell picked up the Coach of the Year award for the second time having previously won in 2014.
In 2017, Castleford finished top of the table for the first time in their 91-year history and won the league leaders shield.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2017/aug/17/castleford-wakefield-super-8s-super-league-match-report|title=Castleford secure first league title after overpowering Wakefield|date=17 August 2017|newspaper=The Guardian}}</ref> On 7 October, Castleford played in their first grand final since 1969 against [[Leeds Rhinos]].

Castleford finished the [[Super League XXIV]] season in 5th place on the table. Castleford reached the second week of the 2019 Super League finals Play-Offs where they were defeated by eventual Grand Finalists [[Salford Red Devils]] 22–0 in the elimination semi-final.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/salford-vs-castleford/live/52308/|title=Salford Red Devils 22–0 Castleford Tigers recap|website=Sky Sports}}</ref>
In the [[2020 Super League season]], the club finished a disappointing ninth on the table, their lowest finish since 2013. Despite Castleford's poor season, Paul McShane won the 2020 [[Man of Steel Awards|Man of Steel]] award.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.superleague.co.uk/article/1790/season-review-castleford-tigers/|title=Season Review Castleford|website=www.superleague.co.uk|accessdate=30 April 2021}}</ref>

===Lee Radford era===
In the 2022 Super League season, Castleford started the year poorly before reaching the playoff places towards the back end of the season. In the final match of the year, Castleford lost 14–6 against [[Leeds Rhinos|Leeds]] to finish 7th with Leeds taking their place in the playoffs.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/leeds-vs-castleford/57450/|title=Super League: Dramatic late Aidan Sezer try sends Leeds Rhinos into play-offs at expense of Castleford Tigers|website=www.skysports.com|accessdate=7 October 2022}}</ref>
Castleford started the 2023 Super League season in similar fashion to the 2022 season losing their opening three games. Following their 36–0 loss to Wigan, Lee Radford was terminated as head coach and replaced by [[Andy Last]]. Under Last, Castleford would only win four matches from a possible 17 games.

=== Axiom ===
The Lateral Property group submitted a planning application for a proposed £135 million development and [[Five Towns Stadium]] in [[Glasshoughton]]. Outline planning permission was given to the development in 2015, with Reserved Matters applications to follow. In early 2018, Lateral Property Group announced that site had been renamed Axiom, working with partner Highgrove Plc,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk/news/video-exclusive-new-name-for-five-towns-park-development-as-more-images-of-scheme-emerge-1-9019924|title=VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: New name for Five Towns Park development as more images of scheme emerge|website=www.pontefractandcastlefordexpress.co.uk}}</ref> a scheme which would include food, a country park and an omni-retail experience. Numerous planning applications have been submitted through Wakefield MDC Planning Department to discharge conditions as well as amend the scheme slightly, with a Reserved Matters application for Phase 1 and 2a of the work approved. The schedule provided by the developers is that work on supporting roads and groundworks will begin in Summer/Autumn 2018 with the stadium to be completed in time for the 2021 season. In July 2018, an application was submitted to increase the capacity of the proposed ground from 10,000 to 10,245.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://planning.wakefield.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?keyVal=PCGM1TQQLLI00&activeTab=summary|title=Non-material amendment to vary the wording of condition 8 of approved Planning Application 16/01544/FUL |website=planning.wakefield.gov.uk}}</ref>

<p>The Lateral Property group submitted a planning application for a proposed £135 million development and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Five_Towns_Stadium" title="Five Towns Stadium">Five Towns Stadium</a> in <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Glasshoughton" title="Glasshoughton">Glasshoughton</a>. Outline planning permission was given to the development in 2015, with Reserved Matters applications to follow. In early 2018, Lateral Property Group announced that site had been renamed Axiom, working with partner Highgrove Plc,<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a></sup> a scheme which would include food, a country park and an omni-retail experience. Numerous planning applications have been submitted through Wakefield MDC Planning Department to discharge conditions as well as amend the scheme slightly, with a Reserved Matters application for Phase 1 and 2a of the work approved. The schedule provided by the developers is that work on supporting roads and groundworks will begin in Summer/Autumn 2018 with the stadium to be completed in time for the 2021 season. In July 2018, an application was submitted to increase the capacity of the proposed ground from 10,000 to 10,245.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a></sup>
