Elite 1 is the top level rugby league competition in France, sanctioned by the French Rugby League Federation. The season runs from September to April, which is in contrast to the majority of other major domestic rugby league competitions worldwide. The clubs play each other home and away then they enter into a play-off series culminating with a Grand Final. The competition is the continuation and first division of the French Rugby League Championship, which has been in existence since 1934.

The league is generally regarded as the third most important domestic championship in the world, behind Australia's National Rugby League and the United Kingdom's Super League, and ahead of the NZRL National Competition, PNGNRL, Balkan Super League and Rhino Cup.

History

The French Rugby League Championship began in 1934, the first one being the only one where it was won by the team finishing top of the table on points and not by a play-off series.

The Elite One Championship was founded in 2002 after the French Rugby League Championship was split into two divisions. The format stayed the same with teams playing each other home and away, before a play-off series would determine the Champions. The club finishing bottom would not be automatically relegated, it would be dependent on whether the club finishing top of Elite Two Championship either wanted to be promoted or their facilities were up to standard.

Le Championnat de France Élite er det højeste niveau af rugby league i Frankrig. Turneringen blev grundlagt i 1934 og er blevet afholdt hvert år siden da, bortset fra i 1940 og 1941 under Anden Verdenskrig.

Turneringen består af 12 hold, som spiller en runde robin-turnering, hvor hvert hold møder hinanden to gange. De bedste seks hold går videre til slutspillet, hvor nummer et og to får en bye i semifinalen. Vinderen af finalen kåres til franske mestre.

De mest succesrige hold i turneringens historie er Toulouse Olympique (13 titler) og XIII Catalan (11 titler).
