Wikipedia - Premiership Rugby Cup
The Premiership Rugby Cup is an English rugby union knockout cup competition for teams in Premiership Rugby and from the 2023–24 season the RFU Championship. It was created in 2018 to replace the Anglo-Welsh Cup after the withdrawal of the Welsh regions.
History
The Premiership Rugby Cup was created to replace the Anglo-Welsh Cup which had been running since 2005 when the Welsh regions joined the then English-only Powergen Cup. In the 2017–18 Anglo-Welsh Cup, all four of the Welsh regions finished bottom of their pools. In May 2018, the Welsh Rugby Union announced that they were going to be setting up a Welsh under-23s competition for their regions and would thus be unable to commit to Anglo-Welsh Cup games. Premiership Rugby Limited, which organises the English top flight, then announced that the Anglo-Welsh Cup would be replaced by the Premiership Rugby Cup, which would be solely for the English Premiership clubs. The new Premiership Cup was created to re-establish the significance of the domestic cup competition and support development of younger English Premiership players by providing a platform to compete in more matches at Premiership stadia.
The 2020–21 tournament was cancelled due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Typically held in the autumn and winter months, the Premiership Rugby Cup combines intense competition with the opportunity for clubs to experiment with their squads, giving emerging players a chance to shine alongside seasoned professionals. The tournament format includes a series of pool matches followed by knockout rounds, culminating in a thrilling final that captures the excitement and passion of rugby union.
Fans can expect high-octane matches filled with skill, strategy, and the raw physicality that defines the sport. The Premiership Rugby Cup not only highlights the depth of talent within English rugby but also fosters a sense of community and rivalry among clubs and their supporters. Whether you're a die-hard rugby fan or new to the sport, the Premiership Rugby Cup promises unforgettable moments and a celebration of the game at its finest.
