At the conclusion of the season, the top four teams enter the play-offs. Following the semi-finals, a final is held at Twickenham and the winner of this match is crowned as champions.
When the season draws to a close, the top seven teams in the Premiership Rugby standings qualify for the Heineken Champions Cup and the remainder play in the European Rugby Challenge Cup instead. This means that every Premiership Rugby team also represents England in European competition.
