Professional Rugby League
Encyclopedia
Professional Rugby League is the premier rugby union
competition in Russia
. The Professional League was formed in 2005 and succeeds the Superleague. The Superleague, in turn, was active from 1992 to 2004 and succeeded the Soviet Championship.
Each club plays each opponent twice; four points are awarded for a win, two for a draw, and one for a defeat. The top four clubs proceed to the play-offs (first introduced in 2006).
In 2007, Yug-Krasnodar
were admitted to the competition, increasing the league's size to eight teams. For 2008 several lower division clubs were admitted, with a total of 14 teams split into three conferences based on geography. Many of elevated clubs were semiprofessional or even amateur in nature, which lead a lack of competitive balance. The average attendance that season was 4285.
2010 saw another change of format. Gone was the East-West divide, culminating in the formation of a 'Super Group'. VVA Monino
, Krasny Yar
, Yenisey-STM
, Slava Moscow
, RC Novokuznetsk
and Imperia-Dynamo
are joined by Fili Moscow
and Spartak GM
in a straight home-and-away league format. The Rugby Union of Russia were reluctant to make any changes in 2011, a World Cup year.
It is speculated that the league will again expand in 2012. Additional Russian entries from two Kazan
-based clubs and RC Lokomotiv
are rumoured, along with foreign candidates in the form of possible bids from Latvia
, Lithuania
and Kazakhstan
