The German Rugby Championship has been a rugby competition for German club teams that has been held since 1909 . It is organized annually by the German Rugby Association (DRV) and is the most important title in the national rugby sport in Germany.
Organization and structure
Until 1934, the mode of competition consisted of first determining a north and a south champion, who then played off the German champions in a final. Then the finalists were determined via regional championships and an intermediate round. So two clubs from the same region could meet each other.
Since 1971 the championship has been played in the First Bundesliga, partly as a single-track league or in a two-track division. After the main round has been determined, the first and second placed players play the German champions in a knockout round . Only in 2002 there was no final, the final table of the Bundesliga was valid.
Championship round
From the 2012/13 season to the 2014/15 season , after the regional preliminary rounds played by the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga, the teams were divided into championship round , DRV Cup and League Cup . The winner of the championship round became German champions.
