Worcester Warriors return to the Championship for the 2025-26 season, ensuring financial stability and growth in rugby.

Worcester Warriors are set to make a significant comeback to professional rugby in the 2025-26 season as part of an expanded 14-team Championship. This decision marks a pivotal moment for the club, which has undergone a rigorous selection process to ensure financial stability and sustainability. The new ownership of Worcester has committed to paying off debts left by previous owners, providing a guarantee of financial security to rugby creditors.

The Warriors will continue to play at their home ground, Sixways Stadium, where plans are in place to enhance the venue`s capacity and facilities. This revitalization effort reflects the club`s ambition to not only return to the Championship but also to thrive within it. The revamped league will include the current 12 Championship clubs along with a promoted side from National League One, creating a dynamic mix of established teams and newcomers.

While Worcester Warriors are rejoining the fold, other clubs like Wasps and London Irish, often referred to as "phoenix clubs," have not yet secured their places in this new league structure. The focus on financial sustainability and growth within the Championship sets the stage for an exciting future in English rugby. For more details, visit Worcester Warriors and Championship.
