Super Rugby Cymru is a rugby union competition between clubs in Wales. It consists of 10 teams and started in September 2024.

The intention of the competition is to bridge the gap for players who move between the Academies and the Regions.^[1] The new competition has replaced the old 13-club Indigo Premiership and is the second tier rugby competition in Wales.^[2]

Teams will compete for the Welsh Super Rugby Trophy and the Welsh Super Rugby Cup.

The Super Rygbi Cymru Trophy is the main league season competition contested between the weekend of 14 September and the Grand Final concluding on or around Saturday 17 May 2025 (at a neutral venue).

The Super Rugby Cup will be presented during the Six Nations Championship, with four rounds of games and a final. The format will be two pools of five clubs, with each club playing two games home and away. The winner of each pool will then meet in the final.

A Challenger Shield will be introduced as part of the regular season. The winners of last season year’s league, Llandovery RFC, will be the inaugural Shield holders.

The holding club must defend the shield in all home games during the regular season (but not during Post Season Finals). If the challenger beats them, they will become the new holder of the shield and required to defend it at their next home game.^[3]

The Challenger Shield will be defended by Llandovery in their home games, starting with their meeting with RGC 1404 in Round 2 on 21st September 2024. ^[4]

All 10 clubs have signed up to a 'salary cap' system which will enable them to spend up to £150,000 on a squad of 32 players. There will be salary cap exemptions for regional players who are released (under 18 and from Senior Academy); dual contract players and injuries.^[4]

URC will provide £105,000 to each club who will have to raise the same amount themselves each season and also meet a set of required operational expectations in running the club and their team.^[4]
