The Tahiti Championship (Template:Lang-fr) is a domestic rugby union club competition that is played in Tahiti. Created in 1971, the Tahiti Championship is at the top of the national league system operated by the Polynesian Rugby Federation. There is promotion and relegation between the Tahiti Championship and the next level down, the Tahiti Championship D2. The seven best rugby teams in Tahiti participate in the competition, hence the name Championnat de Tahiti. The competition had previously more teams, but the league was split into two divisions.

Many local French Polynesian players have begun their careers here in this league before moving to France to compete in the divisions of Ligue Nationale Rugby.

The first ever final took place in 1971, Paea won the inaugural season. The competition has been held on an annual basis since, except in 1995 and 1997. Paea is the most successful club in the competition with 18 titles.
