Women's rugby union in Scotland

The Women's domestic rugby union leagues in Scotland are organised in a similar vein to the men's domestic leagues: on a national basis for the top leagues and regional leagues below feeding into those leagues.

The top two Women's national leagues are the Premiership and National Division 1. The following leagues are split into regions.

History
Women's rugby union in Scotland was amalgamated with the main governing body, Scottish Rugby Union in 2009 after a unanimous vote at their AGM

Sponsorship
The league is currently sponsored by the drinks firm Tennents. Prior to Tennents sponsorship, the telecommunications firm British Telecom were sponsors.

Current season
These are the teams competing for the championship in each league for the 2021-22 season. 2XVs and 3XVs are not listed.
