The 2023 Major League Rugby season was the sixth season of Major League Rugby, the professional rugby union competition sanctioned by USA Rugby. The regular season began on February 17, 2023. ^[2]

The Chicago Hounds made their debut this season, while the Austin Gilgronis and LA Giltinis withdrew from the competition. ^[3] This left a total of 12 teams competing; 6 teams in each conference, with the Chicago Hounds added to the Western Conference.

Teams and format

The 12 teams contested the regular season, with 6 in each of the Eastern and Western Conferences. Each club played two games against each of the other five clubs in their conference (one at home and one away each) and one game against each of the six clubs in the other conference.

Conference rankings at the end of the regular season determined each team's placement in the post season, known as the Championship Series:

• Teams ranked 2nd in their conference hosted the team ranked 3rd, as part of the Eliminators.
• The team in the conference ranked 1st received a bye, and hosted the winner of their conference's Eliminator, to determine the Conference champion.
• Both Conference champions then contested the Championship final, held at SeatGeek Stadium in Chicagoland on July 8, 2023. ^[4] The winners of the Championship final lifted the MLR Shield and became the 2023 Major League Rugby Champions.
