Belgian rugby combines national men’s, women’s and youth competitions with separate Rugby Vlaanderen and LBFR regional systems.
Permanent leagues, seasonal phases and parallel competitions stay separate so a cup or playoff is not mistaken for a league tier.
Belgium Rugby publishes national D1, D2 and D3; the regional systems publish their own numbered divisions.
National competitions
D1, D2 and D3 are the national senior men’s levels.
Regional competitions
Rugby Vlaanderen publishes Regionale 1 and Regionale 2, and LBFR runs its own regional divisions. It is not shown whether teams move automatically from national D3.
Belgium Rugby’s 2026/27 format lists women’s D1, D2, D3 and D4, plus a separate Challenge.
National divisions and Challenge
D1 through D4 are numbered women’s divisions for the 2026/27 season. Challenge has its own Gold and Silver structure and is not part of that numbered sequence.
Belgium Rugby publishes separate U18, U16 and U14 competitions. Its workbooks do not say which gender or rugby format each age group uses.
Age-group divisions
U18, U16 and U14 use numbered division or qualification labels inside their own age groups. Those labels describe one season’s format, not seven more permanent competitions or a single youth ladder.
Rugby Vlaanderen and LBFR each run their own competitions below the national level.
Rugby Vlaanderen
The 2025/26 Regionale 1 page separates Gold and Silver phases. The 2026/27 national workbook instead lists RV D1 and RV D2 plus a playoff against LBFR, so each season has its own format.
LBFR
LBFR runs its regional divisions separately. This page does not show LBFR tables or list its clubs.
Scores and tables
This site does not show Belgian tables, fixtures or results. Belgium Rugby’s document catalogue and the Rugby Vlaanderen regional pages are the official places to look, but neither is one complete Belgian results service.
Club coverage
This page names 16 clubs from Rugby Vlaanderen’s senior men’s regional lists. It is not a complete Belgian club directory. Rugby Vlaanderen’s 38-row recruitment directory and LBFR’s 37-row affiliation list are not used on this page. Dendermonde is already listed here; those directories add no more club pages.
