About our Premiership Women's Rugby news

Latest news on Premiership Women's Rugby, providing coverage of England's top women's rugby union competition, PWR matches, teams, scores and latest developments

Premiership Women's Rugby (PWR) stands as England's premier women's rugby union competition, featuring nine elite teams competing at the highest level of the domestic game. The league, sponsored by Allianz, showcases the best talent in women's rugby, with matches broadcast on TNT Sports and BBC Sport reaching audiences across the UK and internationally.

In the current 2024-25 season, defending champions Gloucester-Hartpury are looking to build on their success after securing their second consecutive title in 2023-24. The competition has seen significant growth, with professional standards rising and increased media coverage through broadcast partnerships. However, challenges remain, as evidenced by Worcester Warriors Women's withdrawal from the competition in October 2023, highlighting ongoing concerns about financial sustainability in the women's game.

The PWR has become a cornerstone of women's rugby development in England, serving as a proving ground for international talent and contributing significantly to the national team's success. Local communities have embraced their teams, with clubs like Saracens, Harlequins, and Bristol Bears drawing increasingly large crowds and fostering grassroots engagement through youth programmes and community initiatives.

The competition's journey began in 2017 as the Premier 15s, emerging from the previous Women's Premiership structure with a £2.4 million investment from the Rugby Football Union. Since then, it has evolved significantly, rebranding to Premiership Women's Rugby in 2023 and establishing itself as one of the world's leading women's rugby competitions. Saracens lead the all-time honours list with three titles, followed by Gloucester-Hartpury with two and Harlequins with one.
