Gallagher Premiership

Premiership Rugby 🏉 (known as Gallagher Premiership Rugby, or the Gallagher Premiership) consists of ten clubs, and is the top division of English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 rugby union. See below for the latest Gallagher Premiership Predictions.

Premiership clubs qualify for Europe’s two main club competitions, the European Rugby Champions Cup 🏆 and the European Rugby Challenge Cup. The team finishing at the bottom of the Premiership each season is relegated to the second division, the RFU Championship. The winner of the Championship is promoted to the Premiership. The competition has been played since 1987, and has evolved into the current Premiership system.

The competition is regarded as one of the three top-level professional leagues. Firstly, the Top 14 in France 🇫🇷. And also the cross-border United Rugby Championship for teams from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, Ireland 🇮🇪, Italy 🇮🇹 and South Africa 🇿🇦.

HISTORY

The governing body of rugby union in England, the Rugby Football Union (RFU), long resisted leagues. It was believed that it would put pressure on clubs to pay their players – contravening the amateur ethos. Instead, clubs arranged their own friendlies and had traditional games. Specifically, the only organised tournaments were the County Cups and County Championship. The former played by clubs and the latter by County representative teams. The Daily Telegraph and a few local newspapers — such as the Yorkshire Post — compiled ‘pennants’ based on teams’ performances, but as the strength of fixture lists varied, it was at best an estimate of a team’s performance throughout a season.

The league turned professional for the 1996/97 season when the first winners were London Wasps, joining Bath and Leicester as the only champions in the league’s first decade.
