Elite One Championship 2022–2023

The 2022–23 Elite One Championship was the 88th season of France's domestic rugby league competition and the 22nd season known as the Elite 1 championship. The competition expanded back to ten teams following the promotion of Baroudeurs de Pia XIII (also known as the Pia Donkeys) from Elite 2 after winning the title in 2021–22.

Each team played 18 matches in the regular season. The top six teams progressed to a three-week final series played during April and May 2023.

Regular season
The regular season started on 2 October 2022 and ended on 14 April 2023. Each team was scheduled to play every other team twice, once at home and the other away making 18 games for each team and a total of 90 games.

Ladder

 * 3 points for a victory
 * 1 point bonus for the losing team if the margin is less than 12
 * If two teams have equal points then the separation factor is the point difference. If a team has a greater point difference they rank higher on the table. If still tied then head-to-head matches will be the tie-breaker.

Finals
At the end of the regular season, the top six from the regular season advanced to the knockout stage. First and second received a bye for the first week of finals as third played sixth (Qualifying Final 1) and fourth played fifth (Qualifying Final 2), with the losers of both matches eliminated. First then played the winner of Qualifying final 1 and second then played the winner of Qualifying Final 2. The winners of these two matches met in the Grand Final on 28 May at Parc des Sports et de l'Amitié in Narbonne.
