The Welsh Rugby Union (WRU; Welsh: Undeb Rygbi Cymru) is the governing body of rugby union in the country of Wales, recognised by the sport's international governing body, World Rugby. [ 1 ] The WRU is responsible for the running of rugby in Wales, overseeing 320 member clubs, the Welsh national team and National Leagues and Cups.
In a rugby union match, each team nominates one of the members of their starting line-up to serve as captain, giving them the responsibility of leading their team and communicating with the referee. Since 1881, the Wales national team has played 722 matches and named 137 captains.
The 2022–23 WRU Championship (or Admiral Championship for sponsorship reasons) was the tenth season of the WRU Championship, the second tier of club rugby in Wales run by the Welsh Rugby Union. It was contested by 14 Welsh clubs.
