Southern Hemisphere Super 15 Rugby
The best clubs from the Southern Hemisphere countries of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa commence battle in February every year in the Super 15 format.
Super Rugby is the largest and pre-eminent professional rugby union competition in the Southern Hemisphere. Building off various Southern Hemisphere competitions dating back to 1986, with teams from a number of southern nations, Super Rugby officially started in 1996 with 12 teams from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The competition was known as Super 12 through to the end of the 2005 season; the name was changed to Super 14 with the addition of two teams for the 2006 season; with expansion to 15 teams in the three countries for the 2012 season, the competition was rebranded as Super Rugby, a name which will continue into the 2012 season.
