Women's Rugby Competitions
To enter the RFUW senior leagues teams must register their interest by completing an intention to affiliate form. This is sent to all affiliated teams near the end of each season, this enables the formation of the leagues for the forthcoming season.
In completing your intention to affiliate for next season please consider your current league status and how you have managed throughout the season; if you have struggled for any reason consider if it may be better for you to select a more suitable league. The RFUW Rules and Regulations for Promotion and Relegation are available in the RFU Handbook and on rfu.com and these will give you a good indication of the standards required for each league along with the league criteria to help you to make a decision.
If you are a new team wishing to enter the League system you will need to return the Intention to Affiliate form with a list of your registered players including dates of birth and a copy of your friendly results throughout the season using Form 6b Friendly Match Report (MS Word DOC 113 kB).
The next stage is to complete the full Affiliation forms for the new season, these are updated and available in following section of the website Establishing a Womens Section
