The RFL President's Cup is an annual competition for men's representative teams drawn from the English / British Rugby League structure. It was previously known as the RFL Association's Cup and from 2014 to 2016 also featured a women's competition.
History
The RFL Associations Cup was founded in 2014 following the previous year's Rugby League Festival Of World Cups (the series of Rugby League World Cups for women, wheelchair, police, armed forces and students). Each of the English / British entries identified the need to improve the number of competitive games they play to better prepare them for future World Cups.
Additional benefits for the women's team would be to give England national team selectors the opportunity to scout players from all sections of the women's game and to create higher intensity fixtures than the domestic competition at the time provided.
The first season saw the men's competition comprised of Great Britain Students, Great Britain Armed Forces, Great Britain Teachers and Great Britain Police and the women's competition featuring England Students, Great Britain Armed Forces, Great Britain Teachers and The Lionesses - a team made up of players from the domestic league, not eligible for the other three teams.
In 2015 England Universities replaced Great Britain Students following the movement of the Student Rugby League Four Nations Competition from the Easter period to a summer slot.
No competition took place in 2017 to allow teams participating in the Festival of World Cups in Australia to focus on preparation and fundraising. During this year, Great Britain Armed Forces re-branded to become UK Armed Forces.
For the 2018 season, the competition was renamed RFL President's Cup and the women's competition was discontinued owing to the England national team being absorbed into the RFL's England Performance Unit.
Format
Each team plays each other once in a round-robin competition, with the team finishing at the top of the league table being crowned champions.
Competition points are scored as follows:
- Win: 2 points
- Draw: 1 point
- Loss: 0 points
- Default on game: 0 points (with 24-0 score-line awarded to the opposition).
Where teams are tied on competition points, points difference (the cumulative number of points scored in all games minus the cumulative number of points conceded in all games) is used to determine league positions.
