Rugby Ekstraliga (Polish: Ekstraliga Polska w rugby union) is a Polish rugby union competition, consisting of 9 clubs, and is the top division of the Polish rugby union system.
The competition takes place cyclically (every season, from autumn to spring) in a circular system as the national championship and is intended for the best Polish rugby clubs. They are organized by the Polish Rugby Union. The winner of the Ekstraliga final is also the Polish champion, and the weakest team plays in a relegation play-off against the winner of the I Liga (formerly II Liga). The current champions are Orkan Sochaczew.
