2018–19 Divizia Națională de Seniori season

The 2018–19 Divizia Națională de Seniori is the second premier Romanian rugby competition, reserved for club teams. The number of participating teams is decreased from initially twelve teams to just nine due to ACS Rugby Morometii Turnu Magurele, CS Manaştur and CS Sportul Studentesc București the three teams which had pulled out for financial reasons., with addition of the 2017-18 champions and runners-up of the second tier championship DNS-Divizia Nationala de Seniori.[1] The eventual champions of the Divizia Națională de Seniori have the right to promote up to the SuperLiga with the relegating teams going down to Divizia A, Romania's 3rd level competition.
