The Scottish Women's Premiership (known as the Arnold Clark Women's Premiership for sponsorship reasons) is the highest level of league competition for women's amateur rugby union clubs in Scotland.
History
The Women’s League was restructured in 2018. A consultation process with clubs began in 2017 where clubs were invited to apply for the league that they felt best suited their women’s teams.[2]
